Usually, I'd expect an encrypted connection between user and server so that
the survey data can be protected against a man-in-the-middle attack.
However, this particular survey doesn't ask for information that is very
personal in nature with the possible exception of age group (e.g. 13-20,
21-30, ..., 51 and above).

experience and how did the RCom responded previously to similar
requests?

Hey folks,
The researcher running one of the new projects

wants to have editors take a survey, but not use
SSL or any other data
encryption technology. What do you think?
