As explained on the RFA, CharlotteWebb came to my attention while I was
investigating other abuses and abusers. His/her name kept showing up on the
list of editors every time a TOR proxy was involved...
Okay, but part of the trust that's involved in a tool like
checkuser is *not* paying attention to (let alone revealing)
stuff you accidentally notice while investigating something else.
If I'm a system administrator who has access to everyone's
mailbox, for example, and while investigating some mailbox
corruption I happen to notice a confidential email indicating
that an acquaintance of mine is screwing his sister-in-law,
I'm really supposed to keep that to myself.
