Has anyone come across statistics or observations in user studies about how people react to the Security Warning message (The information you have entered is to be sent over an unencrypted connection and could easily be read by a third party.)
I have a client whose site elicits this message when people are answering quiz questions. They do not consider the tombstone information (name, address, email etc...) to be the kind of information that requires encryption. Financial information, passwords etc... yes, but basic tombstone info...no. What I am wondering is if the user community feels the same way? Do people resist interacting with a site that collects any information about them, especially address and contact info, that isn't encrypted? Especially the older demographic? Can anyone point to statistics or a study that would support that it isn't an issue, or if it is? Thanks for your ideas and opinions and help.
