Question

A recent survey of smartphone users revealed that 70% of respondents believe that data privacy is important. However, only 30% actively use privacy settings on their devices. The survey indicates that a major reason for this is that many users find privacy settings confusing and difficult to navigate.
Which of the following assumption would allow the above statements to be properly drawn ?

• A. The majority of smartphone users are not concerned about data privacy at all
• B. Users who care about data privacy often do not have the technical skills to manage privacy settings
• C. Most smartphone manufacturers do not provide sufficient information on privacy settings
• D. Many users believe that their data is safe without needing to adjust privacy settings

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The assumption that users who care about data privacy lack the technical skills to manage privacy settings (B) explains why, despite a majority valuing privacy, only a smaller portion actively use the settings. This supports the survey findings.
Thus, the correct answer is Option (B).
