Colonists view this section of Massachusetts Government Act as an infringement on their rights because it limited their ability to assemble.

Option B

Explanation:

The Massachusetts Government Act was passed by the British Parliament in 1774. This act took away most of the powers from the colonists and gave it in the hands of the governor who was appointed by Great Britain. The royally appointed governor had various powers such as the town meetings were only allowed to happen by the governor's consent, Massachusetts colony cannot elect the members of its executive council, and the council could be dissolved anytime by the order of the governor.

This type of uneven distribution of powers was the reason that the colonists viewed this act as an infringement of their rights.
