Yes, that's him. In the course of those conversations it was revealed that
he was an employee or principal of a European company which was producing a
line of key-escrow crypto products, and he was hoping to bias the standards
towards creating a market for his otherwise distasteful and shameful
merchandise.
So it's not surprising (but not encouraging) to see him reappear, marketing
the same tired apologies for his unwanted and useless garbage, seeking to
create a market by forcing people to buy a product they won't spend a dime
on unless it's at gunpoint.
