Cheating existed prior to Internet

Essay writing services existing prior to the Internet. In my city, Toronto, there was a company at a major intersection of the city and next to our huge reference library offering this service with a huge sign. Plus there were flyers posted on campus. The Internet didn't create this fraud, but it no doubt has made it easier to commit.

Hasn't the Internet also enabled plagiarism detecting services? I know academics and media professionals who have used them and found plagiarists. This would not have been feasible before the Internet.
