I think option C might be the right answer since it relates to informing individuals about data processing, which is a key requirement under the PDPA.

This is a tricky one. There are a lot of nuances to the PDPA, so I'll need to really think through each option and how they relate to a data intermediary's responsibilities.

Okay, I think I've got a strategy for this. I'll focus on the core obligations of a data intermediary and see which option best matches that. Gotta be careful not to overthink it.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The PDPA has a lot of different requirements, so I'll need to make sure I understand which ones apply specifically to data intermediaries.

I feel pretty confident about this. The key is understanding the role of a data intermediary and the PDPA requirements around processing data on behalf of a controller. I'll eliminate the options that don't fit that.

Choreography sounds familiar, but I don't think that's where WS-Addressing is primarily used. It's probably more about message routing.

I heard the data intermediary tried to process the data through a blender. Guess they didn't realize that's not how you 'process' information.
