Answer 1

A: shift in user's role from the passive consumer of content to its creator

Step-by-step explanation:

During the phase of Web 2.0, consumers evolved from just been highly informed and socially connected (in other words, they evolved from being just passive consumers) to a more engaged and empowered consumer.
