I bet the designers of this smart watch are having a real 'watch' out for privacy concerns. Haha, get it? 'Watch' out? Okay, I'll see myself out.

This is a tough one, but I'm going with D. Coupling. The smart watch is tightly coupled with the user's phone, allowing for this new functionality.

I see your point, but I still think it's D) Coupling. The smart watch and the phone are closely connected, allowing for this new feature.

I disagree, I believe it's B) Ubiquitous computing. The smart watch is part of the network of devices that are always connected and communicating.

Hold up, what if it's C. Anthropomorphism? The watch is kind of like a digital assistant, right? We're giving it human-like abilities to answer calls.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. I was thinking it might be A. Value-Sensitive Design since the organization seems to be considering the privacy implications of the smart watch feature.
