The prison system is a worthless (unless corporate) racket (prisoners and family), double billing both external and internal sources, using 1998 activeX websites in 2013 to even try to deal or communicate that no one could even use (particularly from linux), and general malfeasance that I can't believe I witnessed with a friend going down for a DUI into that.
Did he do wrong? Yes. Is this right? NO! Not to any self-respecting IT person, which he was. The whole thing is government and corporate nepotism. The drama to even send him some books to read was absurd.
I had to tell him, I couldn't figure out how to work with communicating with him without installing windows xp. It was typical silly government giving grants to their cousins just because they could, hiring some scumbags developers, and with prisoners, why bother? I did some research on who ran the communications systems, and the most crap-bag company you can imagine did, at least for Arizona. I presume now this is common.
That whole system needs burned down from the bottom up, including the lobbyists in the pyre.
