Modern school IT departments monitor network traffic closely. If a massive spike in outbound requests to a specific Quizizz lobby originates from a student's school-issued device or account, tracking the culprit is relatively simple.

When a game is easily broken, the psychological reward of winning or competing fairly vanishes, eventually leading to a loss of interest in the platform altogether. The Ethics of Disruption
