Reading the passage
This is an open inference question, so there isn't one narrow prediction to force on the answers. Keep the concrete example in mind: A posts the document, B creates a link to it, and A can require a password to enter the page. Which claim follows from what the writer says about those actions?
Working the answers
- A
Nothing makes the roles mutually exclusive. Someone could post a document they own and also create a link to it. Giving A and B different roles in this example doesn't establish that no one can perform both roles.
- BCorrect
The argument asks who controls distribution, then answers that A “actually controls access to it.” A's act of posting offers the document for distribution; B merely directs others there. That reasoning treats control of access as the basis for identifying the distributor.
- C
The argument concerns whether linking infringes copyright. It never takes a position on whether owners of online material should receive privacy protection.
- D
This reverses the argument. A controls access; B's ability to send readers there doesn't give B control over the document's availability.
- E
No printing requirement is given. The discussion concerns access to electronic documents and unauthorized copies, not a rule that infringement must involve paper.
