Good point. But the people on the other end of the calls - whose data is also being collected - are afforded that right.

- abtinf 8y agoYou have no reasonable expectation of privacy when calling a prison.
- EGreg 8y agoWhy prisons specifically? Perhaps you should have no reasonable expectation of privacy when calling people in ANY building, then? Some prisons are private, others are public. What about a prison makes this determination easy?
- briandear 8y agoBecause it’s a prison. Voice monitoring is disclosed when calling from a prison. Public or private makes no difference.
- abtinf 8y agoThe purpose of a prison is to hold those who have lost their rights because they have violated the rights of others. To fulfill their purpose, they must maintain a high level of security, both to prevent escape and to prevent further harm to the public. Pervasive and invasive surveillance of the prison population and facilities is a necessary consequence of their legitimate purpose.
- stereographic 8y agoPrivate vs public has no implications here. Both house people who broke laws. You aren't being voice printed in your home by the American prison system be it public or private because you aren't in the American Prison system. I'm not really following your logic here...
- FireBeyond 8y agoMany jails house people who have broken no law, or who will subsequently be acquitted. Or, in your eyes, "collateral damage"...
- LinuxBender 8y agoNo idea why you are being downvoted. Every prison have a disclaimer when you call in or out that all calls are recorded.
- anigbrowl 8y agoWe should consider changing/limiting that.
