Mindfield, the new series by vsauce, tackled this in its first episode, which recently became free to watch. It was an interesting watch, although I couldn't really take the experiment seriously after the segment with the former inmate who had spent way more time confined in a cell with even less stimulation than the one Michael was about to enter. Anyhow, prolonged isolation(>3 days, maybe less) and willful disruption of circadian rhythms should definitely be considered torture. Also, doing this to people who will reenter society is just so shortsighted and dumb, regardless of the total lack of morality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqKdEhx-dD4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqKdEhx-dD4
