Q1
C — private[0] is the address, which is private information and must not be shared. The program should share an item from the safe list, so it should be share(safe[0]).
Q2
C — A username should not contain your full name because that is private. It should use the safe nickname: username = nickname.
Q3
D — A photo that shows your school gives away private information. The message should warn: print("Do not share it"), not say it is safe.
Q4
A — A phone number is private information, so it must not be in the safe list. The safe list should hold things like a colour and a nickname.
Q5
A — Text must be inside quotation marks. It should be nickname = "StarKid", otherwise the program looks for a variable called StarKid.
