One third of the students on my last exam cheated (at least, these were the ones that gave an identical answer to one of the problems, including identical minor typos). I was using the tools described in the article, but apparently I was being too lax about enforcing the 360 degree views or something as they clearly colluded to find a way to share answers anyway.

I feel like this hits the real problem, figure out a better way to prevent cheating and a better cheat will be made.

It should instead be worked on making cheat resistant material

(unfortunately I don't know how to do it but I feel like the later is where the energy/brainstorming should be spent)
