@pj I love to read such posts that condense news and developments of a time, the experiences and their impact in a few lines.
It would be impossible to find out the author (unless historic WHOIS records show real name or email) with what's left. Maybe chloe.re is a long-term nickname, but I'm doubtful.
The snapshot from Oct, 2016 shows that Chloe made another post on May 15th. I assume she deleted the IPredator blog post between these two dates for unknown reasons: https://web.archive.org/web/20161024000532/http://chloe.re/tag/english/
pj is probably right about "I find it not implausible that it's just one of the secondary consequences of those tactics." One her other article is titled "Why I hate to distrust Edward Snowden". Other than that, she seems to be very competent in web security as an administrator (many HTTPS-TLS related topics) and speaks Swedish, there are posts in Swedish.
Oh just before submitting the post:
Someone can contact the friend and ask for contact information or that article specifically.
Edit: Used "intchloe" on Github. However the account is currently inactive.
Edit2: dotchloe on twitter
I will remove these if she's contacted and the article restored or an answer is provided
