Beeblebrox punts the issue of Bbb23 back to the community, via his official spokesplatform, Wikipediocracy

As we probably already knew, Bbb23 did something with his CheckUser rights that was so far out of the acceptable bounds of discretion, that he was permanently struck off by the legal owners of Wikipedia, as far as ever having any access to non-public data.

From Meta:
On the recommendation of the Ombuds Commission, the Trust & Safety Team of the Wikimedia Foundation, on direction of the General Counsel, has revoked access of User:Bbb23 to non-public information or tools that may be used to access non-public information, previously granted under the NDA. This revocation is permanent. --WMFOffice (talk) 11:48, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
Unsurprisingly, that's not something the Wikipedia community considers to be a sign he probably shouldn't be trusted to be an Administrator at all anymore.

It is curious though, as to why, as an Administrator, he is still being allowed to be active in the area of SPI. The exact place where he might be in contact with users who might be tempted to share private data with him. Or indeed, where he might still have private data on users that he has retained on his personal devices, which he can continue to use to place the sort of blocks which really should only be placed by people still trusted with private data.

Enter Beeblebrox. When asked why ArbCom hasn't sought fit to topic ban him from SPI, he rather ridiculously claimed, it's not a matter for them. Apparently, even though the community isn't privy to ANY of the relevant information, the lazy piece of asscrust Beeblebrox wants to place all of the burden of proving there is a potential problem that a topic ban solves, on the community.

Typical.

As is the fact the Wikipedia community has to hear this not from a Wikipedia page, but from the Wikipediocracy forum.

Not at all surprising. Again: even the Mob doesn't have a code of silence as strong as these pathetic wiki-nerds. They cover for each other even when they KNOW it will result in their own punishment. And none of these "secrets" are all that important.

Anyone wanna place bets that Beeblebrox will end up running Wikipediocracy? And I fully expect he will proceed to crash it into the ground. Probably let hackers in to trash it.

I don't know how many different ways to say the same thing, but again, the only concern that was brought to us was use of the CU tool, so that's what we investigated and remedied. What the community knows perfectly well is that the issue was unjustified checking of accounts. If the community feels that is sufficient cause for a topic ban as well, the community can pursue that. ArbCom is, by design, not a proactive body.
Jesus wept.

How many more ways are there to say it is ARBCOMS JOB TO DECIDE IF AN ADMIN CAUGHT MISUSING CHECKUSER TOOLS SHOULD STILL BE ACTIVE IN SPI.

Well done Jake for letting obvious asshattery like this go unchecked on the supposed Wikipedia investigative forum.

Not fucking revealing much here are you? And the world hardly needed yet another example that Beeblebrox is a wanker, if that's your idea of the purpose of these circle jerk threads.

I could take this bastard down in seconds. Get him to admit that there is zero chance of the community being able to make this decision given they don't have enough information on which to judge, and therefore, this utter bollocks is nothing but a smokescreen to hide the fact that ArbCom did make a proactive decision here, and it was that Bbb23 can still be trusted to work in SPI.

And therefore, we will know who to blame, if suspicion arises that blocks are being made that could have only been made if Bbb23 is still somehow able to access private data. Either because the real issue here was that the whole CU team are corrupt, routinely fishing, and Bbb23 was just a fall guy, or he is running a CU enabled sock right under your stupid noses.

Sorry if you thought that I was too hostile for your snowflake tendencies Jake, but sometimes, snowflakes just can't get shit done. Snowflakes are easily ignored and otherwise taken for idiots, by scum like Beeblebrox.

This is one such time.

You could step up and force him to acknowledge basic facts, perhaps even threaten to ban him if he doesn't. That is the only real benefit to you being an independent platform after all.

But that's not really you, is it? :oops:

Quick, chuck a joke in there instead. :roll:
