Study the quote to answer the question: "So-called anonymous tracking is not very secure—the anonymity is fairly easily broken.

Which of the following shows the correct way to omit part of this quote but maintain its meaning through an addition?

"So-called anonymous tracking is not very secure...the anonymity is fairly easily broken. Cracking open that anonymous shell and merging it with personally identifiable information from other sources is a fairly easy engineering feat." "So-called anonymous tracking is not very secure—the anonymity is fairly easily broken. Cracking open that anonymous...is a fairly easy engineering feat." "So-called anonymous tracking is not very secure...[and] merging it with personally identifiable information...is a fairly easy engineering feat." "So-called anonymous tracking is not very secure—the anonymity is fairly easily broken. Cracking [it]...is a fairly easy engineering feat."

well you can get rid of the top choice since it is just restating the quote exactly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (chris911):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the reason it is C and not D is that D does not mention "personally identifiable information" which is very important to the quote.

OpenStudy (chris911):
