      Put prisoners into a VR world of their own to give them a false sense of freedom is straight out of a YA dystopian novel.

      Says a lot about VR headsets that the only eager users are LinkedIn Lunatics and American prisoners.

      If they escape to VR world should it still count as time in prison?

      It would be interesting if we can create a VR society stimulation game to analyze their behavior before release.

      That’s disturbing…but I can kinda see it i guess? Idk, still very Black Mirror.

      Man, when I played video games I’d play for a couple hours and then that hit back to real life sucked. Can’t image what these guys feel when they head back to their cell.

      Good god, maybe just have a monthly community day where they can spend time in a gym with other people who aren’t imprisoned

      It would cost less money and be less stupid

      Hope? Can’t have that under a punitive system. Can’t wait until they get banned because people going to prison must suffer. /S

      The money those things cost compared to treating people with humanity 😩

      This was always the play. The real world will be for the rich and the poor will save up for a VR vacation. This is just a test

      I predicted years ago they’d start using these for rehabilitation and my friend said I was an idiot.

      Wait wait, I think I saw an evolved version of this in Altered Carbon…

      I recall some prisons painting walls pink to calm men! This is better!
