We could build in a grandfather clause so that this doesn't apply retroactively. That would protect current checkusers who had performed checks without knowing the information might become public.
In which case they are too stupid to be a checkuser. Given time, all "private" information becomes public, unless it is destroyed (both physically and mentally).
You may be right, but I'd want to see a grandfather clause because it seems unfair to shift the goalposts suddenly. And without such a clause, very few checkusers would support this.
