    Correct Answer
    A. Social networking
    Explanation
    Social networking should be used for general information, not personal information because social networking platforms are designed for users to connect and share information with a wide audience. Personal information, such as addresses, phone numbers, or financial details, should not be shared on social networking sites as it can be accessed by a large number of people, increasing the risk of privacy breaches and identity theft. It is important to be cautious and mindful of the information shared on social networking platforms to protect personal privacy and security.
