If my memory servers right, it was because his father locked him up as a kid, and it was mentioned in the prison camp in season 5, so it could be that it was not canon yet. Maybe I missed an earlier reference. The actor was claustrophobic however. He even played a claustrophobic attack in season 7.

Garak utterly devastating Gul's authority by something he could as well have entirely fabricated in that moment's notice, for whatever the reason he knew what the code was...given his background I wouldn't be surprised if he knew the exact algorhytm used to generate these codes. Would definitely fit into his character.

Here's something I wonder: surely the Cardassians would occasionally revoke old codes and give out new ones. Tain and Garak as the two most powerful people in the organization in charge of having all the information undoubtedly set up the systems that would assign those codes. Did Garak trust Tain so little that when he was programming the system that automatically gives out new codes, he set it up so it would always update him? Or did Tain trust Garak so much that even though he knew that Garak still had access to new codes even after being exiled, Tain allowed him to keep getting new codes so he could save himself if he was in danger? I don't know which of those options is more heartbreaking.

I think the Obsidian Order codes were hard-encoded into Cardassian circuitry. Like Quark's contact in "the Wire" looking up Garak's implant... Just looking up bioware... [alarm]. I'll bet the Obsidian Order never needed to cancel codes... they just [cancel] the individual who used them improperly...
@tbotalpha8133

@@varianschirmer9375 That seems a touch short-sighted. What if the codes somehow found their way into the hands of Cardassia's enemies? It would only have to happen once, and their entire security apparatus would be laid bare. That would be an unacceptable risk, especially for a regime as paranoid as that of the Cardassian Empire. Far safer to create a more flexible system, where codes can be written off and replaced periodically. Or even allow the old codes to keep working, but be flagged as compromised behind the scenes, so that the Obsidian Order can track whoever's using the out-of-date code.

3000 tons Imperial is 2721,5 tonnes Metric, not that much of a difference. She speaks of mass (tons/tonnes), not weight, therefor not taking the gravity of the world into account (unless its 1,0G). If it were a high gravity world, the weight would be even larger. More likely it's an error in the scripting or she misspoke.

I can never understand why officers in Star Trek feel free to just blurt out their security codes in full audience of their crewmates, as opposed to entering them in by hand. It's like they just trust their other officers not to use their codes, despite the many incidents involving spies, digitally rendered voices used to enter the codes (think Data entering Picard's code in his voice or the saboteur who stole Miles' codes using his recorded voice), and especially changeling infiltrators in DS9. Seriously, you might as well just keep all the codes in a big, unlocked file cabinet labelled, "Do not read. Please :) "

The codes are actually part of a microchip implanted into the brain. New codes generated every second that match the key on the other side (such things exist today on digital LED code rings for website logins). This is why all these important people can recall their security codes instantly with precision and why it is not a security risk to reveal it.
