https://login.microfocus.com/ requires too much registration data.

It is absolutely not necessary to know the real name, address, phone, job
title, zip, location etc. of people just so they can report bugs or write in
the forums. This is against the GDPR principle "Data protection by design and
by default". The same Article 25 says:

"The controller shall implement appropriate technical and organisational
measures for ensuring that, by default, only personal data which are necessary
for each specific purpose of the processing are processed."

Also it is not necessary a 3rd party site (microfocus) to collect the data.
