Thank you Zazara. This at least is a positive step. Otherwise it seemed like Arjen had been almost forgotten. You guys rock!
"Because all options are still open, we have ordered 30,000 stickers with the call to find Arjen Kamphuis. And / or if you know something to report."I sincerely hope that those hackers will be able to retrieve some good information. (How ironic... they are planning to spy on others....) I wonder how they will do that.... What will be their starting point?
Although my preference goes out to dogs (as Zazara), or at least, combine both and more methods together....
As for Bodø aiming at becoming the center of the world; perhaps it is not that far fetched that Arjen chose to remain there for 10 days .... as there have been plans to build a new and large .... data centre in Bodø....
Why am I not confident that those hackers will find Arjen?
Arjen had/has many hacker friends. Up to now
I know what you mean, I too have learned more about the cyber world lately. But I have also come to believe that encryption is a utopia.Time will tell ..but I do share your concerns about finding Arjen and what happend.
But by participate this thread,I did learn a lot about devices,security etc etc.and am sorry to say but my trust in the gov. has dropped to -zero.(it was already zero)
-Offtopic-
Now,with all the attacks going on in Europe I do feel that (an open internet) security isnt a high priority for politicians,but could /more an excuse to stripp citizen from their rights. (sleepwet)
I do think you are right about NASA not the only spy (on foreign ground)'Have read a lot about 5G and it seems several countries had banned Huawei.France, Japan,Australia and more...I know what you mean, I too have learned more about the cyber world lately. But I have also come to believe that encryption is a utopia.
What's more: I don't agree entirely with Arjen's standpoint about terrorist attacks and the like. A number of attacks have been foiled.
For instance: Grote aanslag in Nederland verijdeld: dit is wat we weten
and: Aanslag op Macron verijdeld: zes aanhoudingen
and there are more examples. Unfortunately, there is no 100% guarantee.
As I have stated above: I also believe that encryption is a utopia. Yes well, a provider won't able to read an end-to-end encrypted message (if it keeps to the rules). But a hacker will be able to.
I believe that every encryption can be decrypted.
Example: Doorbraak in onderscheppen cryptocommunicatie
As for CCTV, the presence of camera's in the streets won't prevent all crimes to be committed (Arjen is/was against CCTV for this reason), but they certainly do provide retrospective proof for crimes.
In the UK there are many CCTV camera's. Those camera's provide proof and are of great help in solving committed crimes.

The Dutchman who disappeared in the Arctic

"On August 20, a leading Dutch cybersecurity expert, Arjen Kamphuis, checked out of his hotel in Norway, telling friends he was flying back to Amsterdam. He was never seen again. In September, his ID card was pulled from nearby Arctic waters. Yet Kamphuis’s phones had been turned on more than 1,000 miles away in a small northern Norwegian town on August 30. Because Kamphius was an outspoken advocate for online privacy, some speculate he was assassinated. Others believe he’s become a spy."
I hope it brings new info but I doubt it!Reporter from the Algemeen Dagblad (AD) announced on twitter (tweet date 13-12) that she is working on an article about Arjen,and that it will be published soon:
Annemieke van Dongen (@AnnemiekevD) on Twitter
Seems like she is gathering information (among other things: the closed forum and the possible connection of the UN wich could have been the reason of his booking in Bodø)
Twitter (for some reason I do think that the article of Vrij Nederland is translated in Norwegian on FB,but due to some reason
inaccessible)
Thanks for finding Annemieke's tweet. I hope she'll find out something.Reporter from the Algemeen Dagblad (AD) announced on twitter (tweet date 13-12) that she is working on an article about Arjen,and that it will be published soon:

Are you sure about the heart surgery? Ancilla said heavy surgery, perhaps she is referring to his knee operation?Wondering when AK underwent heart surgery?
Back to my earlier speculations that AK may have been experiencing some kind of medical/mental duress. Some may become very tired, angry, paranoid and depressed for a period of time.
From what i have( privately not professionally) observed over many years is that sometimes heart patients, or those about to become one, can sometimes be clumsy in things they are normally careful with such as how they park their car ( askew) perhaps even causing one to wrongly follow directions such as assembling a kayak.
Medications might need to be adjusted.
Some want to prove they are every bit as capable as they were pre -diagnosis and want to conquer the world, climb mountains, live on a deserted island, or go visit the ice bears, ect.
Complete speculation, imo.
Quite right, thanks- heavy surgery is what Ancilla said!Are you sure about the heart surgery? Ancilla said heavy surgery, perhaps she is referring to his knee operation?
If Arjen is still doing well, I hope he will be able to read Ancilla's message.
