Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
This question requires matching key concepts related to the internet and digital communication with their correct explanations.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let's match each concept from List-I with its corresponding explanation from List-II.
- (A) Netiquettes: A portmanteau of "network etiquette," it refers to the code of polite and acceptable behavior on the internet. A fundamental principle of netiquette is to respect other's privacy. Thus, (A) matches with (IV).
- (B) Cyber crime: This refers to criminal activity that either targets or uses a computer, a computer network, or a networked device. Online frauds, such as phishing and identity theft, are classic examples of cybercrime. Thus, (B) matches with (I).
- (C) Online deliberation of issues in a democracy: This involves using the internet and digital platforms to discuss political and social issues, organize, and influence policy. This practice is also known as cyber activism or digital activism. Thus, (C) matches with (II).
- (D) Social media: These are interactive digital channels that facilitate the creation and sharing of information, ideas, and other forms of expression. Their defining feature is the rapid circulation of information/opinion on a local and global scale. Thus, (D) matches with (III).
The correct set of matches is: (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III).
Step 3: Final Answer:
The matching pair (A)-(IV), (B)-(I), (C)-(II), (D)-(III) corresponds to option (2).
