Anyone held in prison, jail, or other confinement shall be permitted to post up to one kilobyte (1024 characters) of text every day. These posts shall be published on a public web site operated by the imprisoning authority, and in print form in the imprisoning authority’s capital city or other central location. These posts shall be tagged with the prisoner’s name, geographic location, and any identification number the imprisoning authority uses.

This serves a few purposes:

• No government or other authority may hold a prisoner secretly.
• All prisoners may plead their innocence to anyone who cares to hear.
• No prisoner is to be held in such complete isolation that they can’t communicate to the public about the conditions of their imprisonment.
• Anyone interested in auditing the state of their government’s prisons may begin by inspecting the stated locations of prisoners.
• Any prisoner who is not literate shall be afforded literacy education to enable them to participate.

I think there’s some legitimate concern about essentially giving prisoners a broadcast. You’re right that they ought to have some minimum amount of guaranteed communication, but more in the sense that they can call their family or friends without having to pay fees.

Also would love to see solitary confinement outlawed.
