[Year 12 IT Apps] Assessment handbook ambiguity

[Mark KELLY]

Hi all.  A minor quibble or two about the wording in the Assessment Handbook
for ITA U3O2 task 2 (page 15):  "Techniques for acquiring data via websites
are technically feasible..."

It could mean techniques used by the *public* to acquire data from websites,
or it could mean techniques used by the *website operator* to acquire data
by using their website.

I've been assuming it meant the latter, because one of the KK is "techniques
used *by organisations* to acquire data on websites".

Also the use of "individuals" to mean "website visitors" and "organisations"
to mean "website operators" can be unclear.  Many individuals have
websites.  It would be better to identify them as visitors and operators
respectively.

Cheers
