The Wikimetrics login screen [1] presents me with this information: "By using this project, you agree that any private information you give to this project may be made publicly available and not be treated as confidential.
"By using this project, you agree that the volunteer administrators of this project will have access to any data you submit. This can include your IP address, your username/password combination for accounts created in Labs services, and any other information that you send. The volunteer administrators of this project are bound by the Wikimedia Labs Terms of Use, and are not allowed to share this information or use it in any non-approved way. "Since access to this information is fundamental to the operation of Wikimedia Labs, these terms regarding use of your data expressly override the Wikimedia Foundation's Privacy Policy as it relates to the use and access of your personal information." I have two questions to start. 1. Why would my IP, password, or other "private information" that I give to Labs ever "be made publicly available and not treated as confidential"? 2. Why would Labs volunteer administrators ever have access to my password? To the best of my knowledge, even WMF staff never have access to plaintext passwords of anyone but themselves unless someone chooses to disclose their password on a one-time basis.
