Why each option
To allow a web data source with anonymous authentication to be used by all other queries in a Power BI dataset, the privacy level should be set to Public.
The 'Public' privacy level is appropriate for data sources that do not contain or transmit sensitive information, such as publicly available web data accessed with anonymous authentication. Setting it to Public allows it to be combined with data from other privacy levels without compromising data isolation.
'Organizational' privacy level is for internal data sources that can be shared within the organization but might not be suitable for combination with public data due to potential privacy firewall issues if not configured carefully.
'Private' privacy level is for highly sensitive or isolated data sources that should not be combined with other data sources, as it restricts data mashup capabilities and may prevent the query from being used by other queries.
'None' is not a valid privacy level option in Power BI's data source settings.
