Does a Ring of Far Strike threaten all enemies within 30 feet by RAW?
Here is the rules for threatening:
Spoiler:
Threatened Squares: You threaten all squares into which you can make a melee attack, even when it is not your turn. Generally, that means everything in all squares adjacent to your space (including diagonally). An enemy that takes certain actions while in a threatened square provokes an attack of opportunity from you. If you're unarmed, you don't normally threaten any squares and thus can't make attacks of opportunity.
Here is the ring:

Since the user can attack within 30 feat, does he threaten that area as well? If so, that a cheap way to give allies flanking bonuses. Especially if combined with the feat Gang Up.
