Setting aside whether I trust the admiral (I don't and I'm happy to elaborate but that's way outside our scope), I agree that you describe the system quite accurately. Regardless of whether one should trust the admiral and the warden, the fact of the matter is that power *is* vested in the warden. It would be a waste of time for Arthur or whoever if the warden asked the admiral to make you stop using your communicator, for the simple reason that the Admiral will only listen to the warden in question!
I would happy to know the author, but I don't intend to uncover the author. I would be happy to have an in depth conversation with any inmate who sincerely believes the bill of rights will be helpful! I'd go to whoever said any such thing first.
Would the possibility of this "improper" meddling be bothersome enough for you to oppose the bill that would make it more commonplace?
