Question
[3]. 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. In the passage, the word 'permanence' most nearly means:
Option 3 : the quality of lasting indefinitely without being removed or changed

In context the word is used in the sense given in the correct option; the distractors fit other contexts, not this passage.
