CNN.com - Dutch open 'Big Brother' prison - Jan 19, 2006:

"AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) -- At a high-tech prison opening this week inmates wear electronic wristbands that track their every movement and guards monitor cells using emotion-recognition software.

Authorities are convinced the jail in Lelystad -- quickly dubbed 'the Big Brother Prison' by the local press -- represents the future of correctional facilities: cheap and efficient, without coddling criminals or violating their fundamental rights.

Detainees will be kept in six-man dormitory cells. They will do their own cooking, washing and organize their own daytime schedules via a touch-screen monitor at the foot of their beds."
