I thought (i) was true at first, but now I see that legal actions can definitely be ethically questionable.

I'm not sure if (ii) is entirely correct; just because something is legal doesn't mean it's right to do.

I remember discussing how legality and ethics can sometimes conflict, so I think (iii) makes sense.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of this question. What exactly is an "optional non-transitive attribute"? I'll need to review that concept before I can confidently answer this.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B. The Architecture Vision defines the scope and approach for the architecture project, so that seems like the best fit.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The Citrix Web App Firewall can do a lot of different security checks, and I'm not sure which one would specifically cause this issue. I'll need to review my notes on its features and functionality.

Wait, so they're asking us to do something that's technically legal but feels wrong? Sounds like a job for Captain Ethical Gymnastics! I'm going with (iii) - gotta love those ethical codes.

I think (iii) is the correct answer here. We have ethical codes to guide us, even when the law doesn't necessarily catch up with morality. I'm not going to participate in something just because it's legal if it goes against my principles.

Haha, I love how they're trying to trick us with this question. It's like they want us to be ethical superheroes or something. I'm going with (ii) - as long as it's legal, I'm in!

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I suppose (iii) makes the most sense - we have ethical codes for a reason, even if the transactions are technically legal.

What do you mean by 'ethically unsound'? If it's legal, I'm good to go. Ethics are for people with too much time on their hands.
