Its been quite a while since I've taken a proctored exam, but then all the proctors would clear all the memory on your calc before they'd let you use it for test. Is that not the case anymore?

The article said it can be download "on demand" so that might make the clearing pointless.

Make people switch devices, problem solved. Does not work without tampering with the hardware

Or use a dongle to lock the calc in test mode, where unlock needs a passcode sent from it.
