I disagree with lamborghini. Improperly disposing of computers can also be an environmental impact. ESG covers a broader spectrum than PII does. No mentions of compromised information are in this question, so I think A is correct.

ESG. Generally improper disposal is in regard to Environmental concerns - say, they're throwing away the laptop batteries in the trash or something.

Selected Answer: C

Handling PII is what should be taken into consideration. While ESG is an important consideration for investors, it is not relevant to the situation described in the prompt. The company was penalized for improperly disposing of computers, not for their environmental impact or social responsibility.

A penalty would come from ESG, while PII would be a fine I think. Or a lawsuit.
