In my perspectives, the outcomes of teaching the prisoners how to use technology really depends on the real-inner side of the prisoner themselves. The kind ones, many catch up many useful skills, and make the world a better place. However, the evil ones can also learn the skill, but only for selfishness and bad purposes. For example, the bad guys can learn how to build a website, and make fake website to hack people’s laptops.
Don’t say the aftermath of learning, when someone in the prison got the privilege to learn such skills, may bring hate within the jail. Some one will become a better human, will others who doesn’t receive the right to learn new technology will get worse.
I feel sad to see the prisoners during the pandemic, they have nothing but left in the most dangerous place (without PPEs, without proper care) to die. I hope the jails can have better care to them, including better facilities and more health care management.
