I worry that the US capacity to maintain databases is going to seriously impact our ability to assess efficacy of a variety of programs and services. I hope large useful datasets are archived somewhere, somehow.

The instruction page collected the network id and wrote it to a separate table and refused access if you already completed the survey. It also insured you were added to the correct workgroup (2/2).
