I saw this on. My news. It really just blew my mind.

Is this a condition of early release? What if someone refuses? Do they do their full sentence? What if someone did their full sentence and refuses?
Not one I'd heard of before, so not sure on what the conditions are. I'd imagine if you refuse though it would mean going back inside.
Not a bad idea. We're all tracked these days anyway. Heck, knowing where everyone was never hurt anyone on Star Trek.
Before I got married I tended to live as much off the grid as I possibly could. My mobile phone was pay as you go and not registered in my name, I had no debts, no criminal record (the only thing that is really against the law is getting caught), no car, didn't buy things online and so on. Every 10 years my job requires me to get security vetted and the last time when they went to check on me I got called in as they couldn't find any proof I existed.
Since they'd be paying me for a decade at that point this slightly surprised me.
Nowadays I'd imagine I'd light up their board like a christmas tree, but oh how I do miss those days of being untrackable.
