Just to clear things out, although I think I know the answer, what
about regular users' request to arbcoms etc? Are checkusers going to
be obliged to disclose that too? Or only if the request is made to the
*foundation*? (I think it is the latter, but please confirm :) )

A more specific question than what White Cat wrote
below would be this: In
what situations does the WMF disclose information? Only as the result of a
subpoena? In response to a national security letter? To a non-binding
request from law enforcement (assuming that, in some locales, a request
other than a subpoena may be binding)?
I would assume that a request from a private lawyer for information relevant
to litigation which has not resulted in a subpoena valid in the United
States would not be honored? Somewhat relevant to me personally, as a
matter of fact, as I have reason to expect such a request for my
information.

I am kind of concerned (not with the change btw).
Basically if I wanted to
learn the IP of a user I dislike, all I need to do is file a criminal
charge? How does it work?
