This is incredibly distressing news for anyone who allows purchases with BTC. For the rest of us, I don't know what exactly this changes in the privacy domain; anonymous sales were never really part of anyone's business model that I can think of.

I have a question that I fear may be taken the wrong way:

How does this affect people who only do business in the US?
