Hi JJ, I can't speak for anyone else, but I was responding specifically to the statement "four arbitrators posted personally identifying information about me and did not respond to my requests to remove it.", which would be a concern to me both in regards to the specific case and also the broader implications for privacy.

Neotarf, if WMF Legal has reviewed the PII concerns, including escalating them to C-level, and has chosen not to get involved, I'm afraid that you're probably out of luck unless a change of policy happens on ENWP or with the relevant WMF policies. You could lobby for a change, and you might get it, although that is a long road to travel. My mental bandwidth is too constrained to continue personal involvement in this discussion at this time, but I don't want to discourage you from requesting a change in policy if you think that would be good. You may wish to conserve your energy by first dealing with your ban appeal; I have not reviewed the evidence in your case and I will refrain from speculating on the merits of the appeal. After that appeal is resolved, if there is a favorable outcome, you may find it easier to propose one or more changes to policies. Good luck.
