I thought it was about appointing a DPO, but that might be related to a different part of the GDPR.

I feel like Article 5(2) emphasizes accountability, so B seems right, but I could be mixing it up with another article.

I'm pretty confident that the answer is B. The GDPR is clear that the controller is responsible for demonstrating compliance with the data protection principles. That's the core of the accountability and data governance obligation.

I'm a little confused by this question. The wording seems a bit tricky. I'll have to review my notes on the GDPR to make sure I'm interpreting this correctly. Maybe I'll come back to it later if I have time.

Okay, I've got it! The basis of the accountability and data governance obligation is that the controller shall be responsible for and able to demonstrate compliance with the data protection principles. That's option B.

Option B all the way! The controller is the one holding the bag, so they better be able to prove they're doing it right. Wouldn't want to end up like that guy who got fined for losing track of his data, yikes!

I think option B is the way to go. The controller has to be able to show they're following the GDPR requirements. Anything less is just asking for trouble!

Hmm, I'm not sure about option B. Doesn't the GDPR also require controllers to conduct legitimate interests assessments for direct marketing? I'll need to double-check that.
