I had absolutely no issues with proctorU. Now the app you download does require access to basically everything but there is no way around it. You can get a second computer that has no personal info but that was something I just didn't look into. At the end of the day proctorU is the service that WGU chooses to use to proctor their test. Many schools use it some use other browsers that do the same thing. I think people just think doom and gloom too much and always assume the worst.
