not just Australia, it's world wide and likely led by the FBI (but possibly data being collected outside the US to avoid the need of having actual warrants)
The following thread looks at some of the opened court documents today:

(and points out that the Trump organisation might be in trouble ....)
- lazyasciiart 5y agoBeing outside the US doesn't avoid the need for actual warrants. That thread mentions several, both in the US and out of it.
- Scoundreller 5y agoUnless they found a pushover country and structured as much data to be sent there in the app. Have them get the warrant and review the data and inform you of anything good. Arbitrage isn’t just for bankers.
- galaxyLogic 5y agoThe tweet says: "... remember that Dipshit McSonInLaw used these exact "technologies" to communicate with the Saudis and stuff. ... ". But, I don't see how he the tweeter could be sure or know that Trumps used this app?
- marlor 5y agoI’m sure he has no idea. This is far from the only encrypted messaging system out there.
- anigbrowl 5y agoEric Garland is a massive blowhard/self-promoter (and I say this despite sharing his dislike of Trump). Even when his claims are accurate he's so obnoxious and annoying that I can't be bothered to evaluate his other claims. I save a lot of time and mental agitation by ignoring e-personalities and assuming that if something is important I'll hear about it from a quality source before very long.

We’ve had 4 years of media personas announcing Trump’s imminent incarceration. Call me when something sticks.

- Sleepytime 5y ago>(and points out that the Trump organisation might be in trouble ....) Thanks for that line, I was starting to worry that there were things going on in the world that weren't about Trump.
