That would depend on how it was being used when the information was found:
"The tool is to be used to fight vandalism, to check for sockpuppet abuse, and to limit disruption of the project. It must be used only to prevent damage to one or several of Wikimedia projects."
This policy would not allow a checkuser on CharlotteWebb
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. I'm certainly not the only CheckUser who has noticed this - far from it.
