That chess guy used a remote controlled butt plug to cheat, people will always find a way.

And he was caught. Do you think we should be checking every chess grandmasters butthole going forward?

He was accused (by his opponent Magnus Carlsen) of cheating, and it's the internet that made a meme of using a buttplug as a means of cheating. There was never any legitimate accusation of using a buttplug to cheat, and there was never any consequences for him. In fact, he sued Magnus for defamation and they settled out of court.
