          i can confirm: ew is correct. it has admin priviledges and literally scans all running programs and captures every key press. u cant even ctrl+alt+del without it reporting it and closing itself.

          it seems ironic to require cyber security students to install windows and respondus just to pass the course…

            I just graduated with my degree in CSEC and, while my college luckily never had us do that, I know at least 10 people who would have found a way to trick it somehow into reporting false data

        It’s crazy how I know which comment you meant. Lemmy still feels more like living in a small village where everyone knows everyone. Or it was just pure coincidence, who knows.
