This is the most persistent myth on YouTube Shorts. It does not work. When you "Inspect Element," you are only editing the local copy of the webpage in your browser. You are changing what you see, not what the MathsWatch server sees. Changing "23" to "42" on your screen does not send "42" to your teacher.
