Technology Brands and Products

Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were Ph.D. students at Stanford University. The company's origins trace back to their research project at Stanford, making option B correct. None of the other universities listed (Princeton, MIT, or Columbia) were the founding location of Google.

Yahoo was indeed founded at Stanford University by Jerry Yang and David Filo. Electronic Arts, however, was founded by Trip Hawkins in May 1982 - while Hawkins was a Stanford MBA graduate, the company itself was founded in Silicon Valley, not technically 'at Stanford' in the same academic sense. The question conflates the two companies, but given the context and options, A is marked as correct. This ambiguity makes the question problematic.
