Last week Roger Avary, Oscar winner and co-scribe of Pulp Fiction, was removed from a work furlough program and transferred to a California jail just days after using his Twitter account to share private information about his cellmate.

The Ventura County’s sheriff’s department said he was transferred due to security reasons and not for his Twitter updates.

An interesting insight into the inner sanctums of America’s prison system or yet another incident demonstrating the freedoms celebrities are allowed that others are not?

Losing the ability to communicate with others is one of the fundamental liberties one is denied once they’ve been put behind bars. We’ve all heard it – “one phone call.”

When will it become – one email, last text message, or final tweet? What will inmates be allowed in this changing digital landscape? With blackberries and mobile Internet, what’s stopping someone from emailing the “rat” in a crime scandal just before he or she gets thrown behind bars?

I’ll be curious to see what rules the law will enforce or whom they’ll make an example out of. I have a sneaky suspicion that person is not going to be an Academy Award winner.

In August, Avary pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated following a fatal crash last year.
