Gen Z is on the streets. What should happen next?

Make leaked papers worthless. Deliver every exam paper to centers as an encrypted file, and release the decryption key only 30 minutes before the exam through a public audit log anyone can watch. A paper stolen the night before decrypts to nothing. Trade-off I'd accept: centers need reliable internet and a backup, so I'd pilot it in one state next cycle before going national — imperfect coverage beats another year of leaks.

Credit where it's due — the people driving this movement have named the problem clearly. The harder half is the solution. So this is an open invitation to @CJP_2029, @Cockroachisback and everyone organizing alongside him: take the chair and put one concrete plan on the record — what would you actually do, and what trade-off would you accept? To start it off, here's a citizen plan already on the table: make leaked papers worthless by encrypting them and releasing the key 30 minutes before the exam. Counter it, or bring a better one. Your move.

Stop punishing students for the system's failure. Pre-fund a pool so the moment a leak is confirmed, every affected student gets a free re-exam within 45 days — not three years of court dates and lost seats. Trade-off: a standing fund locks up budget, but that's insurance the exam system already owes the students who trusted it.

Give leaks a fixed clock. Any confirmed paper leak triggers an automatic 30-day public inquiry led by an all-party-appointed integrity ombudsman with a fixed tenure, and one named officer is accountable for the outcome. Trade-off: it's another body with a cost and a politicization risk — which is exactly why the appointment must be all-party, not the ruling party's pick.
