   whether the unauthorized use of computers is as dangerous to people

   Why this is right

   This is not my favorite answer. Arjun isn't directly weighing in on the comparison question: Which is more dangerous -- joyriding or hacking? Arjun just points out that hacking also has the potential to do physical harm. But it's supportable that Arjun would say "hacking is basically as dangerous as joyriding", since he's enthusiastically! disagreeing with Yolanda, by bringing up that hacking can also do people physical harm. Yolanda explicitly says "joyriding is the more dangerous crime (than hacking)".

   Skill tested: Agree/Disagree · how this choice captures the argument's function is the move to repeat next time.
