I heard a rumor that option E is 'Data is what you get when you don't pay your internet bill on time.'

Data and information are like peanut butter and jelly - they go hand in hand! Option D is the clear winner here.

Hmm, option B sounds like a trick question. Information is definitely more than just raw, unstructured data.

I'm not sure about option C. How can information exist without any data to base it on? Seems a bit illogical to me.

Option D seems to be the most accurate description. Data is the raw material that can be processed into meaningful information.

But isn't information also raw data sometimes? I'm not sure about this one.
