Why would you expect to get the same answer to those two questions? They're completely different, and answering Yes to 1 and No to 2 is self-consistent.

Or do you mean that responders answered No to 1 and Yes to 2?

The implication is "no" to 1 and "yes' to 2, because the first is framed as giving prisoners a privilege and the second is framed as punishing them. Unfortunately the source for this was likely Ken White (@popehat), and he's left Twitter and removed his tweets, so it's not possible to confirm the original wording. I'm pretty sure it was just an offhand remark he made and not something that's actually been studied.
