Re the questions about Data Protection, as someone who works in this field, you should say no as it is a definite security risk. You didn't agree to the moderators having this information when you signed up to the group and therefore it is against the law and unethical for them to ask or store such information. And you should ask them how safe their computers are and what Data Protection Act training they have received.
Thank you!!!
