Increased pressure amongst students due to increasing competition out there along with companies' preferences of high ratings on platforms like codeforces and codechef has increased a lot of cheating online. I want to highlight this fact to @Admins out there. Several Telegram groups discuss live solutions, and it does not end here I want to highlight a fact of recent contest that solutions are getting leaked on youtube channels as well during the contests, One such example is: Solutions leaked during contest on youtube We can see that here solutions are leaked till problem E1. and that too during the contest timings!!

So a good competitive coder will perform similar to the one who merely searched for solutions online -> it will make them disheartened and they will also indulge in such kind of practices -> now admins will see that more and more submissions are there for those questions which are supposed to be tough -> they will increase the difficulty without knowing the actual state of the genuine coders out there and the cycle goes on and on.

It will spoil the major motive of organizing contests.

Something must be done in order to stop this

Thank You
