If a message containing private information is sent to the correct recipient but arrives very late, which two aspects of communication are adversely affected?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Timeliness and usefulness
Late delivery directly harms timeliness. Because information may be needed for a decision or action at a particular moment, delay can also reduce its practical usefulness. Sending the message to the correct recipient does not by itself damage confidentiality, and the situation gives no evidence that accuracy, completeness, clarity, or format changed.
