    My daughter had to write a university paper once. They required two cameras to be running. One atop the screen like you use for meetings, and one showing the whole desk and the tested person.

      Redhat would randomly interrupt your test and ask you to stand up, pick up the camera and show the room

        Privacy invasion. I doubt that would hold water in the EU.
        Also, do we really want to normalize mandatory cameras broadcasting from people’s homes? Where’s the outrage?

            In the UK I refused to turn my camera on in online class and cited GDPR. The next class the lecturer informed us that he can’t force us to do it anymore due to GDPR. Lol.

        It’s really useless too. If I wanted to cheat on a test so fucking bad, I’d learn to read braille and just stick reference material under my desk.

          I’d clone my monitor to a second monitor in another room and then use an AirPod or something similar to communicate with someone searching for the answers using the second screen and a second device.
