What is the risk of not signing out after using a public computer?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Another person can use the account
A public computer may be used by many people after one user leaves. If an account remains signed in, the next person may view private information, change settings, send messages, or misuse the account. Signing out, removing saved login details, and avoiding the saving of passwords are safer practices. The other options have no connection with account security, so option A is correct.
