Amateur radio does not equal Internet access.
This seems to be a bizarre concept for USA hams to fathom.
I go for days without Internet access in Senegal.
The people I compete with in the top ten do not cheat.

I know it seems odd, but we still can't assume everyone is connected to the
Internet at their radio station. One day we may be able to make that
assumption. As a quaint datapoint, in the early 1990s the ARRL's Contest
Advisory Committee debated strenuously whether or not to expect logs in
digital format. For several YEARS.
