"Police go directly for the circuit breaker panel to avoid being filmed This post will be in English, because there apparently is a lot of interest in what happened to me yesterday. I'm a libertarian danish privacy activist and former police officer and I have been doing activism for about 15 years. I have had a bit of time to think about my arrest and the actions of the masked police that broke down my door - with no prior warning. The prefece to the story is, that I in a kind of roundabout and (I think) humorous way published "my two favorite numbers" by spelling out a 10 diget and a 8 diget number with letters. I didn't tell what they ment, but they where prime minister Mette Frederiksen's social security and phone number. I also published a screenshot of me trying to interview Mette Frederiksen on what app, asking her about her wanting to ban encryption (CSA) and introducing mass surveillance via granting the police intelligence services access to all sorts of information (medical journals, social media posts, DNA registers ment for research and so on). That resulted in me being arrested by armed and masked police breaking down my door without me having any chance of opening it for them. When the two civilian dressed masked men entered the apparentment one of them immediately went for the circuit breaker panel to shut off the power to my router. They then removed my Google Nest cameras - because they knew that the cameras contains local storage. That way they could avoid having video of the (in my view) illegal arrest. Only the few moments before the power is cut was filmed. There is video of me asking them for the charges - and them refusing to tell me (which is illegal). But I can't access it, because they took the cameras. I'm not even sure if that is legal. In Denmark it is (nominally) totally legal to film the police. That way it is possible to know what happened and it's not just your word against there's. Denmark and the West are moving in the wrong direction, and it makes me sad." ]]> Mon 22 Jun 2026 13:08:07 +0200 https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1616840/danish-independent-journalist-and-former-police-officer-was-detained-by-masked-offic/ https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1609875/wehrmacht-occupied-denmark-in-less-than-4-5-hours-see-description/
For some reason, Denmark has a heroic movie about resisting Nazis. This is despite the fact that Wehrmacht occupied Denmark in less than 4.5 hours and lost no soldiers in combat. (Germany’s only 2 deaths were accidents during transit). The invasion began 04:15 on April 9, 1940; government ordered ceasefire ~06:00, formal surrender ~08:34. ]]> Sun 18 Jan 2026 03:43:04 +0200 https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1609875/wehrmacht-occupied-denmark-in-less-than-4-5-hours-see-description/ https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1609037/denmark-s-pm-mette-frederiksen-said-in-a-statement-responding-to-trump-regarding-gree/
Denmark’s Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, said in a statement responding to Trump regarding Greenland: "I have to say this very directly to the United States: It makes absolutely no sense to talk about the need for the United States to take over Greenland. The United States has no right to annex any of the three countries in the Commonwealth. The Kingdom of Denmark - and thus Greenland - is part of NATO and is therefore covered by the alliance's security guarantee. We already have a defense agreement between the Kingdom and the United States today, which gives the United States wide access to Greenland. And we, on the part of the Kingdom, have invested significantly in security in the Aretic. I would therefore strongly urge the United States to stop the threats against a historically close ally and against another country and another people who have said very clearly that they are not for sale." ]]> Mon 05 Jan 2026 07:40:00 +0200 https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1609037/denmark-s-pm-mette-frederiksen-said-in-a-statement-responding-to-trump-regarding-gree/
