I was not going to make any remarks about the survey but I am having a weka moment so will comment.
Let me set the stage:
- You are going to get a survey which you, as a respondent can be identified.
- You have no idea how it will be actually used or who will use it.
- You are going to be asked questions relating to everything from your phyusical condition, your mental condition, (even if you may be paranoid, eg.
question under #37, "Do you feel that people would try to take advantage of you if they got the chance?" I think the survey speaks for itself on this one.), your drug intake/prescriptions, etc., a huge list of potential/real medical conditions, your eating habits, has anyone tried to harm you, (back to potential paranoia). your education level, age, do you own/rent?, your religious habits/how spiritual are you, insurance you may carry, depression, and many so on's..
**Now you are going to send all of this personal information off to someone who you don't know and yet can be identified to you and used anyway they see fit.
Has anyone..anyone ever been sent a survey whether not identifiable or
can identify respondent that covered the broad a series of questions? I have not and would NEVER respond to such an incrediable invasion of my privacy.
I don't overlook the fact that it could provide a great profile of The Villages.
That is not enough to support tracking on your privacy and worse yet with
no restrictions on who will have access, how it will be used and what mechanics are in place to prevent misuse.
