This sounds like something which you have no evidence at all for claiming.
- seszett 2y agoI don't have evidence but I do have experience on this. I'm not sure why you would be the quickly dismissive of something that would seem obvious to many.
- Aeolun 2y agoI mean, it’s a ‘water is wet’ kind of statement. Prisoners aren’t provided a mobile phone and data plan either.
- jakkos 2y agoI knew a person who was in abusive relationships where the abuser would keep making ridiculous claims that the person was cheating on them, and made them give up having their own phone as "proof" that they wouldn't cheat. Of course, the abuser was cheating the whole time.
