The public record puts 2 organizations on this action. Operational lead: FBI. The table lists the role the cited record assigns each one, in the record's own wording where it gives any.

## Why this page names organizations only

Roles on this page describe the agencies that took part. Individuals named in the public record appear on the takedown entry itself, under People and accountability.

## Organizations and roles

| Emblem | Organization | Role | What the record says |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | [Federal Bureau of Investigation](https://takedownindex.org/organizations/federal-bureau-of-investigation), United States | Operational lead | Led the US side of the seizure. |
| | [National Crime Agency](https://takedownindex.org/organizations/national-crime-agency), United Kingdom | Supporting | Supported the coordinated action; two arrests reported in the UK. |

## Accountability

### Legal authority

US domain seizure warrant; coordinated with UK/NL/DE authorities.

### Ongoing investigation

Group accounted for: Partial. Nothing in the cited record states that everyone involved has been identified.

This page records organizational involvement as the cited sources state it. Where a role carries no description, the record gives none.
