I'm kinda on risk for being put into one, so I kinda wanted to learn some stuff about how is it inside those. I think my biggest fear there is boredoom. Like, will I be able to videocall friends and/or listen to music there? Will my mp3 player/portable chinese retro emulator/phone/any eletronic be confiscated there?

I went in a little over a decade ago. Yes they'll take your tech.

They need to make sure whatever you're experiencing isnt environmental, so you get put in their environment where they can control the variables. No phone, because social media likely adds to whatever issue you're experiencing.
