Question

[2]. Passage: Systems that remember everything a person has said, searched, or photographed raise a question older than computing: who owns a memory? A diary kept by its writer can be burned; a digital memory, copied across servers, cannot be reliably erased. This permanence creates benefits for medicine and learning, but it also allows past mistakes to follow a person indefinitely and allows others to reconstruct behaviour the person never intended to share. Consent given once, in a long agreement, is a weak safeguard. A fairer model would treat personal memory as held in trust, with clear limits on retention, on secondary use, and on who may query the record and for what purpose. Which inference is best supported by the passage?

1.
Outcomes improve when rules or protections are combined with understanding, participation and measurable indicators, not by appearance or punishment alone.
2.
Communities and users have no useful role in monitoring or regulation.
3.
What cannot be measured in a photograph is unimportant for policy.
4.
A single strict ban solves every problem described in the passage.
