Which of these is not true?
- You can delete a connection.
- You can delete a contact.
- You can withdraw an introduction.
- You can withdraw an invitation.
Correct Answer

A. You can delete a contact.

Explanation

The statement "You can delete a contact" is not true because in most communication platforms and social media networks, users have the option to delete or remove contacts from their contact list or address book. Deleting a contact means removing their information and any associated communication history from the user's account. This action is commonly available to users for managing their contacts and connections.

- All of the above
Correct Answer

A. Require action by "connections" can be made in reaching "contacts."

Explanation

The correct answer is "Require action by 'connections' can be made in reaching 'contacts'." This answer is supported by the statement that introductions require action by connections to reach contacts. In other words, in order to make introductions, you need the assistance or involvement of your existing connections to connect you with new contacts. This implies that introductions are not solely dependent on knowing a contact's email address, as stated in the third statement. Therefore, the correct answer is that introductions require action by connections to reach contacts.

Privacy controls allow users to hide their connections from being viewed by others, but still make them searchable. This means that while the connections may not be visible to others, they can still be found through search functionality. This provides a balance between privacy and discoverability, allowing users to control who can see their connections while still being able to connect with others if desired.
