The correct answer is D) to prohibit US citizens from disclosing any information related to the war.

The US Congress passed the Espionage Act in 1917 to prohibit US citizens from disclosing any information related to the war.

The act made it federal crime any act that could interfere with the US military or that helped any enemy nation. It also stated that any individual that shared information with the enemy would be sentenced to death.
