Kalua and Anahi discussed a recent story they had read in an online news feed. Kalua said he was going to post a comment but decided not to when he realized he could not remove his comment after it was posted. Anahi said she was concerned about whether the article was real news or fake news and how it would affect the individuals in the story. Kalua said he wondered what the possibility was of having the story removed if it was fake news. Anahi wondered if it could be removed if it was true, because it was really a personal matter between the individuals and should not have been published. Later in the day Kalua called Anahi and said that he had read another article that said under one of the U.S. Constitution Amendments, it was almost impossible to have stories removed from the Internet

and that people in the U.S. lack the "right to be forgotten" except in rare circumstances. Which Amendment to the U.S. Constitutional affects the rights of individuals to be forgotten on the Internet? A. First Amendment B. Second Amendment C. Fifth Amendment D. Tenth Amendment
