Yolanda: Gaining access to computers without authorization and manipulating the data and programs they contain is comparable to joyriding in stolen cars; both involve breaking into private property and treating it recklessly. Joyriding, however, is the more dangerous crime because it physically endangers people, whereas only intellectual property is harmed in the case of computer crimes.
Arjun: I disagree! For example, unauthorized use of medical records systems in hospitals could damage data systems on which human lives depend, and therefore computer crimes also cause physical harm to people.
An issue in dispute between Yolanda and Arjun is
(A) whether joyriding physically endangers human lives
(B) whether the unauthorized manipulation of computer data involves damage to private property
(C) whether damage to physical property is more criminal than damage to intellectual property
(D) whether the unauthorized use of computers is as dangerous to people as is joyriding
(E) whether treating private property recklessly is ever a dangerous crime
