Jesus, people don't even get internet access in US prisons?
Depends on what you are in for. And also depends on which prison guard you posed off.
And I assume that it may also vary from prison to prison, as prisons are privatised in the US?
Not sure why you got down voted for that. But the prisons are privatized in the US. Not sure how that would affect phone or internet
They probably got down voted because it's not correct to say the prisons are privatized. There are private prisons, but 90+% of prisoners are not in private prisons.
