Hi Pajz,
The idea that a previously trustworthy functionary or OTRS volunteer might
later go rogue has occurred to me, so let's work with that example for a
moment.
Let's hypothesize that we have a good way (>90% confidence) of verifying
all submitted identity documents and that those documents a

An analogous argument to the one you're making is: someone who intends to rob
your home will be able to get in one way or other, so why bother locking the
doors when you go out. This is not a good argument.
You're calling into question the reliability of every identification document

Seriously?
I think you've gone on long enough for now. You can come off

Okay, that's enough, Trilliium. You've now made a personal attack against

Trillium, while I sympathise with several of the points you're making, the
Board has approved the current version of the policy. In light of this,
your insinuation that the Executive Director could simply alter the policy
to her liking seems somewhat far-fetched. Just because staff have not yet

I am having difficulty understanding how retaining copies of possibly
forged identification documents helps anyone with holding accountable any

Thank you for commenting my open letter to Lila. I guess if I send an open
letter I should expect open responses, however I surely hope Lila will speak on
the matter, "yea," "nay," or "not of concern to me," as I asked.

Trillium,
Let's be clear about a few things. The only data that checkusers get is a
subset of the data that the WMF webservers (and all other webservers
throughout the Internet) collect on all visitors. This is data that is

Hi, Trillium-
As I pointed out to you the last time we discussed the privacy
policy[1], this issue (and the rest of the policy) were discussed
extensively with the community, with the board, and with the previous
Executive Director. It was then approved by the Board.
This particular topic was dis
Dear Ms. Tretikov,
Would you please speak on the new revision of the "Access to Non-Public

support of it? You'll find it here:
