If a public message contains true information but also includes unnecessary personally identifying details, what is the appropriate edit?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Remove unnecessary personally identifying details while retaining the necessary information
Truth alone does not make every detail appropriate for public disclosure. The editor should retain information needed for the public purpose but remove unnecessary names, addresses, contact details, or other identifiers. This follows data minimisation and protects privacy. Adding details or publishing unchanged increases risk, while deleting the entire useful message is unnecessarily extreme. Option A is correct.
