Australia: Prison-provided devices sometimes available outside of cells under approval.

Canada: No.

Norway: Yes, even in cells.

Romania: A few prisons have inmate-accessible computers, but no internet.

US: There is a 'TRULINCS' program providing supervised access to email (only) in some prisons.
