"Just disagree" is unconvincing and you'll need to be seeking a profit if you want accepted to YC.

This is not true. They've been funding nonprofits for at least 4 years. And the (YC W18) indicates that they're already in YC.
There's seeking profit (which every sustainable venture should do -- even nonprofits) and only seeking profit at the detriment to the people they serve. The current set of companies in corrective justice are in the latter category -- any effort to be in the former is welcomed in my book. As someone who worked on Global Tel Link as part of the my former employer's portfolio, I can tell you that the intentions of private companies currently serving the corrections departments are far far worse.
