I can't believe this PoS is being used still and has these problems still. I left high school like 10 years ago and it's what we used there.
I remember one dumbass teacher issued a template for a coursework assignment then tried to fail everyone because it flagged shigh similarity scores because of his own template. Keyword tried because everybody threw enough of a fit to make it stop.
Even as I started uni, it was a different software with a far better algo, that didn't flag like lecturer/professor provided code we were working with for a given assignment and such.
Using this for academic papers for PhDs or something would be another level of absurd. Imagine doing a lit review lol.
They use it for PhDs here.
Do you remember what the one with better algo was? I've got some friends in the education sector that had to deal with the turnitin BS from the other side.
