I am so glad this wasn’t a thing when I was in school, I can’t think of much that would have made me more angry than having to defend something I wrote myself against accusations of plagiarism
Or worse, being written by AI

So much this, although I really regret not just finishing college whilst all this crap was still in its infancy. Student exploitation is absolutely nuts these days.
“Turnitin”, the “Lockdown Browser” and its fellow RAT rootkit malware ilk, one time use serial codes to do the “homework” in $300 textbooks.
It’s absolute insanity. Especially nowadays when schools and wider society forgot what education was about, and run with the idea that it’s all to earn a lottery ticket to potentially landing a job that might one day pay off that exploitation.
