Answer:

This is an example of The Stonewaller

Step-by-step explanation:

Stonewalling refers to the act of refusing communication to evade the issue. Many people may have heard of a stonewaller: —that is a person who refuses to engage in conversation or share feelings when important issues come up.

It really leads to fustrations among the other group members as a result of their stalling of the project inorder to put her through on internet usage.
