Answer 1

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Aaron, an employee of MindRaft Inc., had an argument with one of his colleagues, Ron. Following this, Aaron sent hate mails containing sarcastic and offensive statements to Ron. In this scenario, the message sent by Aaron is an example of a _____.

A) ​spam

B) ​flame

C) ​virus

D) ​hoax

Answer:

The correct answer is B) flame.

Explanation:

In communication, flames are messages sent or posted with the purpose of offending or insulting someone. The action of doing so is called flaming. It commonly leads to people exchanging insults. Flaming often happens at online forums that allow members to post messages anonymously. Anonymity gives people a sense of security and impunity, which frequently leads them to a harmful type of disinhibition.
