NPOST Police MCQ Question and Answers

Question 1

Major websites have created a sophisticated tool known as a "supercookie" that can recreate user profiles even after people erase the ordinary cookies and that is impossible for computer users to recognize as a new, legal method of tracking users' online behavior. While several businesses have come under fire for selling customer information online, other websites that employ supercookies claimed that the tracking was unintentional and that they would stop using it. Following notification that they had been employing supercookies, some websites declared on Wednesday that they would look into the tactic right away. The Parliament has discussed ways to preserve consumer privacy because knowing a person's web browsing history might give advertising information about their interests, where they are located, and how much money they have.

Accepted Answer

Cannot Say

Answer

Explanation:
We are aware of the legality of supercookies and the fact that Parliament has discussed privacy protection measures for consumers. We cannot, however, deduce that there are any particular laws that forbid the use of information tracking technologies or laws that safeguard users' online actions.

Consequently, the response is Cannot Say.

Question 5

A narcotics dealer who was in possession of heroin valued at $675,00 when your squad arrested him was arrested. How many kilograms of heroin did the dealer have if heroin is worth $150,000 a kilogram?

Accepted Answer

5

Answer

To determine the quantity of heroin, divide the total value by the price per kilogram. The calculation is $675,000 / $150,000, which equals 4.5 kilograms. Since 4.5 kg is not an available option, and standard rounding rules typically round 0.5 up, 5 kg is the most appropriate answer among the given choices.
