Prisoners are allowed to use internet in many places.

There are three ways around this:

1. Stop using Google services as the root node for everything.

2. Make Google change its policy.

3. Make prisons/nations change their policy.

In France in 2017 we had 60 000 prisoners and they seized 40 000+ smartphones the same year.

Keep in mind 2FA is used by like 10% of the population, and I very much doubt the statistics go up for people who go to jail
