The HN title is editorialized by injecting tendentious and controversial framing not present in the OP article let alone the OP title.
It's not even accurate, these practices seem far closer to "involuntary servitude" than "slavery." The term "slave," at least in the American context, implies being chattel, which none of these prisoners are.
For the record, here's the OP title:
> US prison workers produce $11B worth of goods and services for ‘little to no pay at all’
And here's the current HN post title: "US prison slaves produce $11B worth of goods and services."
