I don't care about proctoring. I care about the nonsense rules the proctors make up. Like telling my neighbor to stop mowing his lawn because of the noise or turn my clear glass full of water upside down so they can see in the glass. I don't like the noise they have when they don't mute themselves. i don't like them interrupting me while I'm concentrating. I don't like having to show someone my room and that video is recorded. I don't like sharing my license on camera which is recorded and stored overseas. Cybersecurity is a massive problem with the proctoring industry. The struggle to understand what the proctors are saying can be difficult to work through as some can get pretty aggressive and nasty. I can't say I've experienced these issues in person with a professor or TA in the room. Some professors even leave the classroom during exams because they're bored and have no interest in babysitting. They know that if you're going to cheat, you'll find a way. For some it's not worth the battle.

I'm not saying there aren't issues with online proctoring - I just can't figure out why people get so weird about people "watching them" while they're taking an online test, as if this hasn't been the case since forever with in-person tests.
