Actually neither is the case unfortunately. Whether or not users choose to participate has no direct bearing on me whatsoever as the Computer Center is simply a neutral third party that volunteered to do the work free of charge.

The point is, that in the scheme of things this really isn't such a big deal (at least 50% felt safe enough to participate last year--the majority of which are still employed) yet the paranoia persists. This isn't the most serious problem we've ever encountered and I would hazard to say that it ranks pretty close to the bottom. Thus, the irony. That is why I'm interested in the experiences of the rest of the community.
