Do you know what prompted that ban to limit access to computers, after all they do have computers in prisons?

I don't know why he was banned from computers. Seems to me he was convicted of fraud of some sort but I could be wrong about that. I suppose some prisons have them but obviously they could prevent an inmate from using them.
