Solutions Are Being Sold During Contest Time !!
By Muhimin, history, 2 days ago, In English

Recently, Plagiarism during Codeforces rounds has increased significantly.

There are now dedicated Telegram channels, YouTube channels, and websites that provide solutions during contests. Sometimes these solutions are offered for free, while other times they are sold for less than a dollar. This trend is very discouraging for beginner coders like us.

MikeMirzayanov Codeforces should take action to address this issue. I’m not sharing links to these channels or websites here, as it might only help them grow their audience. However, I am attaching some screenshots to raise awareness about this issue and requesting Codeforces to take action.

Is code plagiarism checking useful for this issue?

Codeforces theoretically could make the plagiarism algorithm powered by AI, it would make it 100x better but, it would also take at least 2x the time.

It can be easy to make it easy to be checked out or not makes sense,like:

  1. Screenshot during contest.
  2. Making contest pages covers all the screen.
  3. Only trusted participants can enter,others do VP instead. If there are other ways,Please reply to the comment.

    Cheaters may just use another devices. I think it's almost impossible to make people don't cheat.

It's nearly impossible to catch cheaters if they start sharing ideas and "detailed explanation" instead of codes.
