I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. Taking information-gathering tasks, that would normally be done by in house, dedicated staff, and outsourcing to the public is known as crowdsourcing. It is the act of a company or institution taking a function once performed by employees and outsourcing it to an undefined network of people in the form of an open call.
