\u00a0Maybe<\/p>\n

Points:\u00a010\u00a0out of 10<\/p>\n
What is the purpose of a user access agreement?<\/p>\n

\u00a0to outline all acceptable and unacceptable behavior of all company employees<\/p>\n
Feedback<\/p>\n
Correct. The user access agreement gives sufficient detail for acceptable and unacceptable uses of IT resources, but it cannot identify every possible situation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Does the sharing result in monetary gain for the person doing the sharing?<\/p>\n
\u00a0Is the site that is being used for the sharing primarily used for illegal sharing?<\/p>\n

Correct. This is the sole criterion: if the material is copyrighted, then sharing it is illegal.<\/p>\n
