Reading the passage
This returns to our main-point prediction, now asking what the writer is doing. The purpose is to criticize the attempt to protect corporate secrets and employees' freedom through injunctions. We aren't given a replacement policy.
Working the answers
- ACorrect
This keeps both parts of the criticism: problems for employees and failure to stop the spread of protected information. The final exception for concrete materials doesn't defeat it; preventing some document transfers still doesn't halt the subtler leakage the writer describes.
- B
Documents are mentioned at the end, but their contents aren't called trivial. The point is that these concrete transfers are easier to control, not that protecting them is worthless.
- C
A critique can leave us wanting a better method without actually arguing that new methods must be found. That recommendation isn't the purpose developed here.
- D
The difficulty comes from knowledge becoming part of an employee's abilities and from proving where information originated. There's no argument that increasing access to information has made the entire concept of trade-secret protection obsolete.
- E
Failing to accomplish the full job doesn't mean an injunction is unnecessary. It might still serve a limited purpose. The writer questions whether it is enough, not whether it could ever be needed.
