I don't think they appreciate this article, not quite doxxing but publishing the results of a hunt for the person's name and location when it can already be assumed they don't want that known if they have never published it despite being quite high-profile.

The nixos link was edited and removed by the author 3 hours after this submission was posted to HN.

Checking who wrote this blog, the About starts with:

> Jani Patokallio was first bitten by the travel bug at the age of 8 months and hasn't managed to shake it yet. Halfway through racking up 650,000 flight miles

sounds like a nice person (next, they'll tell us how much plastic they bought in a lifetime!), but that aspect aside, I'm not seeing any motive for why archive's personalia should need to be dug into...
