Prisoners in NSW's SuperMax prison are using Facebook to keep in touch with the outside world, including fellow gang members - and to request contact with women - in what appears to be a major security breach.
Prison authorities have admitted they are powerless to stop inmates appearing on social networking sites such as Facebook and called for new legislation.
It is understood associates of the inmates have been updating the profiles, sometimes with letters and photos smuggled out of prison.
We are also aware of lower-risk inmates having online profiles, including pictures, which are believed to be updated by Sydney bikies. Internet use is banned in NSW prisons and there is no suggestion inmates are updating their profiles.

Let me get this straight... it's not okay for the inmates to go on Facebook but it's alright for them to accept gifts from their visitors?

Well they're not going on facebook.
They have people on the outside doing it for them.
