Q19

[ManhattanPrepLSAT1]

Answer choice (B) is correct. In paragraph 3, the author states that person A posts the document (thereby making it accessible) and "controls access to the document," while person B simply links to the document. Then the author says that creating a link is not the same as distributing the document. Thus, we can infer that the author believes person A to be in control of distribution, not person B.

Incorrect Answers
(A) is out of scope. The passage does not discuss the possibility of being a linker and an owner of content simultaneously. Furthermore, to say definitively that there are "no" people who fall into this category would be a very extreme statement.
(C) is out of scope. Access is discussed, by not privacy rights.
(D) is out of scope. This is subtle. The issue discussed isn’t who has primary control over who reads the document, but rather who has primary control over distribution of the document. These are two very different things. The former is not addressed.
(E) is out of scope.
