    Is it possible to get around this with user agent spoofing? Or maybe degoogled Chromium?

      It is possible to make the website think I am using chrome and windows, but I don’t want to get in trouble for cheating. Even if I use degoogle Chromium it still won’t allow me because I use Linux.

          Some of them will detect if using virtualization. For example http://safeexambrowser.org/ by ETH Zurich

          Ironically enough, it is free software https://github.com/SafeExamBrowser
