The thread at

very disturbing. SlimVirgin seems to have inside knowledge from the
Checkuser Logs of which users Lar has been running checks on. The only way
she could have obtained this knowledge is if there is either a leak on the
Checkuser-L list or if someone with access to the Checkuser logs told her.
I don't think who's been running checks on who is considered private
information - it's the results of those checks that are covered by the
privacy policy. If someone with access to the logs thought there was
good reason to share part of them with SlimVirgin, then I think they
would be allowed to do so.
