Securus Technologies is the very definition of "Abuser" according to the FCC.

The FCC came up with rules to put a cap on the maximum rates that could be charged for inmate phone systems. These phone services are paid by the families and loved ones of those currently incarcerated. Securus was charging so much, that the FCC had to come up with the special rules specifically to stop the abuse of "society's most vulnerable people, the families and loved ones of those currently incarcerated."

The FCC came up with a new set of rules that would further reduce the maximum rates that could be charged by companies like Securus, these new rules were set to go into effect in March 2017, but due to the corruption and unethical practices of the FCC chairman Ajit Pai, those rules are currently pending judicial review and have not gone into effect as of yet.

Securus Technologies is so greedy, that they don't even know how to conduct business ethically. Had they fair rates, they would be making much more money, but because they charge astronomically high rates, abusing the people of this country, their revenue is much lower than what it could be, they are stupidly greedy.

Securus Technologies also violates several privacy laws. Particularly, they run trace programs, there by spamming their users by making automated calls to them that hang up on the user when answered, the purpose being to attempt to trace the call and determine the user's location, and calling system. Unfortunately for everyone, their system is extremely flawed, vulnerable, and error prone. Usually this results in them taking it upon themselves to block numbers that have already been approved by the local government, and by the correctional facilities/systems that they service. This methodology, often referred to as, vigilante, is illegal in this great country. It is clear that Securus Technologies believes themselves to exist above the law, and because of that inflated ego, believe that they can use their position to extort, abuse, and try to destroy relationships, hurt people, by interfering where they do not belong, blocking numbers, charging people extremely high rates until they are bankrupt, all the while not hesitating to charge for the time that they insert their announcements into the phone system to remind you and your loved ones incarcerated, exactly who it is that is abusing you and your wallets, and that there is nothing you can do about it because they have the only contact to service whatever facility you are trying to receive calls from, and are so very apparently bribing politicians and local government in order to be awarded these contracts. No self respecting politician would ever award a contract that would knowingly abuse their constituents.

Securus Technologies, I would suggest you change your ways, before you are met with legal repercussions, public protests, or worse.
