Just because someone cannot access Google Groups randomly, that does
not mean someone cannot release messages from the lists themselves. It
would be best to not consider the list private or privileged.
Also, everyone will need to download your attachments. Please be
considerate of those on metered connections and do not post large
attachments. I don't want to download your giant pictures or PDFs that
I have no need for and will delete almost immediately.
So, honestly, I still think the two reasons for moving to Google
Groups is a folly, but I guess I'm not active enough to have mattered
in this discussion.

We will begin using this instead of freelists in a month or two. First we
will make sure that everyone is signed up. Also, freelists emails will
automatically redirect to the google groups email.
2 Main reasons are: Privacy and Attachments.
