I.           Read the following passage and choose the best answer.

Since the terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001, there have been a lot of discussions about new security measures in airports and other public spaces. Defenders of civil liberties are worried that our fear of terrorism is a danger to our freedoms and privacy.

Now the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in the US has ordered American airlines to give them data on millions of passengers. This is the country’s latest attempt to improve security checks on airline passengers. The plan is called “Secure Flight.” It compares passenger records, from credit card numbers to addresses, with names on terrorist watch lists.

However, the plan is causing privacy concerns both in the US and abroad. [A] It has been said that European Union data protection officials had “huge concerns” about the US government’s first attempt at computerized screening of passengers. [B] That effort was ended because of European fears that the government would have access to too much personal information.

[C] If the European Union determines that Secure Flight violates its privacy laws, airlines will have a problem. If they obey the TSA’s orders, they risk being fined by the European Union for violating EU privacy laws. [D] If they obey the European Union, they risk being fined by the United States.
