The...law?
Of course they will. If they don't, they'll be arrested. Which is exactly what happened.
In which country?
The country in which the perpetrator lives or the crime was committed. First time using the internet?
In your opinion, all companies must disclose the personal information of customers whenever a Government says "This person broke the law"?
None of this is my opinion, it's just how the world works LOL
Not necessarily, but kinda. The gov typically need some sort of warrant, and they need approval from the country they're requesting it from. (I don't know all the legal terms here). The provider can contest it. Look at the disclosures of your favorite international tech company, most of them make this information public (except when the gov specifically tells them they can't until they change their mind later).
Here's one from Proton
Can you elaborate?
Which Government?
Pardon my ignorance as this is my first time using the internet, but I am pretty sure that every Government on the planet does not use a universal set of laws or procedures for enforcement.
I just did.
I already answered this one as well.
No but they all certainly have some sort of system for requesting access to information.
