TorrentFreak covers a forcible change of operating system to enable monitoring. "'I had a meeting with my probation officer today, and he told me that he has to install monitoring software onto my PC. No big deal to me, that is part of my sentence. However, their software doesn't support GNU/Linux (Which is what I use). So, he told me that if I want to use a computer, I would have to use an OS that the software can be installed on.'" (Thanks to Ludo Stellingwerff).
