For the past week someone have been streaming the contests.

This youtube channel has streamed all the contests that took place in the past week.

Codeforces' contests streamed on the channel are: - Codeforces Round 933 (Div. 3) - Educational Codeforces Round 163 - Codeforces Round 934 (Div. 2) - Codeforces Round 935 (Div. 3)

The streams are getting a good amount of views, which indicates that a lot of contestants may have cheated or tried to cheat during those contests.

Also, the account used for submitting YT_OP_Does_CP is completely visible during the streams.

And the code gets uploaded to GitHub publicly during the contest, this leads to cheaters being able to easily hide that the code is copied using tools like ChatGPT.

The account usually has expert performance; in a div 3, this can place someone at the top of the standings just by cheating.

I believe that letting this continue poses a grave threat to the fairness of the contests, and some action should be taken to stop this kind of streams.

MikeMirzayanov Please stop or disable his accounts or at least stop them temporarily in the time of a contest because this ruins contests for a lot of contestants.

In that stream, he claims to be 'assisting the competitive programming community' with these actions. What an extravagant display of self-delusion!
