I get the impression that you have (or claim to have) information that isn't publicly available and think he is disingenuous or imormal as a person.

Do you also disagree with the causes he is promoting or only the person and/or methods?

Some of his ideas, like full anarcho capitalism, I would need to be convinced before being onboard with. But opposing mass surveillance and promoting government accountability seems odd to vigorously oppose.

I think some context is being lost in a literal translation.

I think they mean secret as in unlisted where their records aren't accessible in public government databases. The same protection you would get if you were stalked for example.

The tone of the post sounds like smear since it entirely dismisses his advocacy of personal liberty with claims that havn't been published in Danish media as far as I know.

It would be interesting if you could elaborate on the claims that be was a corrupt police officer and drug dealer.

My understanding of his own account is that he left the force when he wasn't comfortable arresting people over weed and that he saw systematic abuse of power that he didn't want to partake in. Is there more to the story?

His recent activism has been focusing on contrasting the privacy people in power demand with their work to deny the broad population privacy.

I've been using this ftdi cable too for the last 15 years or so and, while trs isn't a great connector, I haven't had any issues in practice.

It works well for capturing serial logs, a console or software updates in development. The advantage i saw was that I could order 50 cables from a distributor and give one to everyone that works on the device.

If someone needs one on the other side of the world, they can get one from a local suppliers.

Hot plugging hasn't been a problem in my designs, I add a series resistors to the uart net and ESD protection if software developers will use it.

When I use it for other devices, like routers, SBCs and IP cameras I avoid hot plugging and leaving it connected when the device isn't powered.
