I've seen so many of these stories that penalize people because of skin colour, neurodiversity etc, that I felt it was time for a discussion on HN.

I feel for everyone on the recieving end of ProctorU or ProctorIO or similar. The teachers are in an unfamiliar high-stress situation and they are sold the promise of tools to make skeuomorphic translations into remote work.

I don’t blame the professor using the tool. I blame them for reporting it as academic dishonesty without attempting to do any diligence whatsoever. That’s lazy behaviour totally lacking in integrity.

Wow, that’s terrible. Do you happen to have a link to a specific story? I’d be interested in reading about it.
