Smart questions get smart answers.

If you want HR to test technical knowledge just make a multiple choice

How does the user know that it cannot access the web site?

When did users become things?

Probably a candidate that made this mistake should be dismissed from

How do you know that the client is a person?

Perhaps "What language is the client written in, and what Operating
System is it running on?" would be a better response.
