The correct answer is B. The internet provides access to information that would otherwise be unobtainable to the general public.

Explanation:

The purpose of a counterclaim is to disprove or oppose the main claim; this implies, a counterclaim should rebut the main point of the claim by providing reasons or evidence.

In the case presented, the claim proposes the internet "has actually brought more harm to society than good" this implies the claim focuses on the negative effects of the internet, and therefore an effective counterclaim should show the positive effects of this. Thus, the best option is "The internet provides access to information that would otherwise be unobtainable to the general public" because this opposes the main claim by showing the internet is essential and positive. This makes this statement a potential effective counterclaim.
