Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Technology such as video conferencing eliminates the need for physical travel, making the distance to prisons (B) and the lack of public transportation (A) irrelevant. It also allows for potentially longer interactions, addressing the issue of short visit durations (D). However, it does not change the security protocols for physical visits, such as searches (C), but this challenge is not applicable to virtual visits, making it the correct answer by elimination.
