Answer: C) Don Tapscott said, "Just as the Internet drops transaction and collaboration costs...it [the Internet] also drops the cost of dissent, of rebellion, and even insurrection." 

------

Usually words in brackets indicate added text. However, "[sic]" in option B in indicates that the quote as written as it appeared in the original text or speech. Sic is sometimes used to show that the text was originally contained a grammatical/spelling error.

In option A, the use of the ellipsis "..." indicated that text was dropped. 
In option D, nothing can be seen to be added or dropped, making it seem like the complete quote by Don Tapscott.

That makes C the correct answer, since "[the internet]" was added as clarification for the word "it."
