This petition lays roots in my frustrating personal experience where, as a diligent student, I spent a wearisome hour beading sweat trying to get Honorlock, an online proctoring service, to accept my ID for an exam. Even after reaching out to their support team, the issue remained persistent. They concluded their assistance by wishing me luck and nudged me towards contacting my professor for acceptance into the examination.

This is but one instance of the stresses Honorlock brings to students. Beyond its often-reported issues, Honorlock presents additional anxieties for test-takers. The invasive nature of this tool, which involves recording students throughout their examination, has raised several privacy concerns. Moreover, countless occasions of technical glitches wasting precious examination time are becoming increasingly common.

Thus, this petition requests your signature to demand that educational institutions remove Honorlock from their listing of examination tools. Doing so will liberate students from the unnecessary stress of technical issues and privacy intrusions, allowing concentrated focus on their academics. Your signature can make a difference to thousands of students. Please, sign this petition today.
