Everyone acting like this is a problem is very funny to me

The solution is to simply implement some form of system that requires students to run programs like keyloggers to monitor their input while writing their essays and won’t accept them without the accompanying “proof” they wrote it themselves

It’s not that hard

First of all, no one is installing a keylogger onto their personal computer. Secondly, they can just.. retype it? I don't understand how that would prove they wrote it themselves.

Actually, Google Docs already does what he described. It records every keystroke as you enter the data and you can go back and look at the changes.

Also, nobody types out a complete essay in one go. You will have to put more effort into it than that. Still doable though.
