Texas Judge Rules Muslim Prisoners’ Rights Violated
U S District Judge Kenneth Hoyt ruled the Texas Department of Criminal Justice illegally restricted Muslim inmates from practicing their religion. The decision vs the 1977 settlement requires allowing more than an hour of religious activity weekly without mandatory staff supervision. The ruling notes rural areas lack Muslim inmates to meet staffing needs and that Christians receive more accessible services. An appeal is expected, and state officials declined comment.

The ruling lets data protectors weigh privacy against public knowledge, potentially erasing accurate online information and raising concerns about free speech and access to facts. The piece contrasts EU action with US constitutional protections and warns of arbitrary censorship.
