Discussion
With reference to the above passage, the following assumptions have been made:
1. Governments worldwide have successfully enforced privacy protection through legal frameworks.
2. Technological safeguards are fully in place to prevent all abuses and to balance security and freedoms of individuals.
3. Digital footprints have multiplied the risk of unethical data handling.
4. Strong legal frameworks are required for maintaining human dignity, autonomy, and personal security.
Which of the above assumptions are invalid?
Answer: B
Assumptions 1 and 2 are invalid.
Nothing in the passage says governments worldwide have successfully enforced privacy through legal frameworks (assumption 1), or that technological safeguards are fully in place and prevent all abuses (assumption 2); it says such measures are required, which suggests they are not yet complete.
Assumptions 3 and 4 are supported: expanding digital footprints raise the risk of misuse of data, and the passage says robust legal frameworks are needed to protect human dignity, autonomy and personal security. So '3 and 4', '2 only' and '1 and 4' are wrong.
