He was the publisher of the Halloween documents (from my understanding leaked by a whistleblower to him) and has always been a firm opponent to Windows in all his works. Are you thinking of Poettering?

<del> Isn't this his blog: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/ ?

It is hosted by Microsoft and talks about implementation details of Windows. So I always assumed, that he works there.</del>

My bad, that's Raymond Chen.
