I'm not sure I agree with the last part of this. Setting aside whether he should be in prison at all, he is, and being in prison is not about just locking someone up for a while. The whole 'you are not in control' thing is part and parcel with the experience. I think it's kind of the point.

What I've read about weev suggests that he's the type of guy that will try to push every button on every person at every opportunity. If this is true about him, that he's being mistreated in this way is not a surprise at all. Maybe some good will come of the attention, but I would be surprised if it's a positive change in the way the BOP responds to irritant prisoners.
