I have been dreaming of this day for over five years. Proctorio’s lawsuit against me is forever over. I’ve won my life back! https://t.co/m2GlB9eU6E

Proctorio settles curious lawsuit with librarian who shared public YouTube videos https://t.co/UBcXlrs5iS

Schools pay Proctorio hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. This money helps fund a five year million dollar lawsuit against me for daring to criticize them. Meanwhile, their competitors are earning tens, even hundreds of millions simply by not being Proctorio.

Want to avoid getting sued by Proctorio? Don't do business with them. Proctorio *only* sues their customers.

[Ian Linkletter @Linkletter]

Proctorio is still suing me. It's been 1,863 days. I estimate it costs them something like $1000 a day, but might be wrong.

Protect Students. Cancel Proctorio.

The only proctoring company that has ever sued its own customers is Proctorio. You'd be safer with anyone else. Read what Proctorio did to Miami University student Erik Johnson. Out of all the proctoring companies, Proctorio is the litigious one. https://t.co/7sBNx2XVbH

[Ian Linkletter @Linkletter]

The best way to avoid being sued by Proctorio is to not do business with them. They only sue students and staff from their institutional customers. Proctorio has never sued a non-customer.

Protect your students and staff by refusing to give Proctorio your business.

They put in the newspaper that I got mad. My life is a dril meme.

Proctorio claims to be able to detect smart glasses, but it can't even see human faces.

[Ian Linkletter @Linkletter]

Proctorio now claims to be able to detect the use of "smart glasses".

Recent research shows that Proctorio's software has a higher "failure to detect" rate for people with darker skin tones, people with head coverings, and people with glasses.

I needed to edit https://t.co/rj3uEOsJ6T this week.

Proctorio will drag this out as long as they can. I was 36 when I was sued, now I'm 41. One day I will be free from this meritless lawsuit, but until that day I have the pro bono legal counsel needed to sustain the fight.

New research confirms that OpenCV, the open source facial detection software used by Proctorio, is racially biased.

Lucy Satheesan was right! Proctorio is wrong.
