Outrage that OCP exams are now unproctored - Comments?

Greetings,

I have heard a rumor that the Oracle9i OCP SQL exam is unproctored:

"The new exam is un-proctored, meaning that you can take the exam unsupervised at your own location. If you do not have good internet access, proctored exams are delivered in a secure testing environment, at an Oracle University Training Center or Authorized Prometric Testing Center."

Because there is no guarantee that the person taking the exam is the same person who registered for the exam, many DBAs feel that this practice degrades the value of Oracle certification, and makes it even more worthless than before.
