Wait, does that mean I can't be the data subject if I'm the one processing the data? That's like saying the chef can't be the food, right? I'm so confused!

I think I've got it! The data subject is the individual whose data is being processed, so options A and C are the correct answers. But I'm still not sure about option B...

Haha, option E is just ridiculous. Who would think a data subject is someone collecting data illegally? That's a big no-no in the world of data protection!

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Is it possible that the data subject could also be the one providing the data, like in option A? I might need to think this through a bit more.
