Summary

Prison Without Walls

By Graeme Wood and Graeme Wood

Prison Without Walls is about a man who chose to wear a GPS device around his ankle that normally tracks sex offenders, killers, check bouncers, and other sorts of criminals. The device is called BI ExacuTrack AT, it is designed to track a person’s every movement via GPS.  He originally chose to do this so he would see the reaction of what people thought about it. Not too many people noticed it except a bearded truck driver looking man at a Holiday Inn hotel at a ice machine. He goes on to explain that these GPS devices are keeping some criminals out of prison, but some of them end up there anyways. It goes on to say that the first clients of the GPS devices were used on cows in 1978. The farmers used the devices as a way to feed his cows automatically. In the 1980's is when BI started "tethering people". They expanded to all 50 states tracking criminals, except people that owe child support and ax murderers.  What it comes down to is, helping the government save money by putting true criminals behind bars, and giving the not-so-hard criminals these GPS devices.
