Deaf man sues Pornhub for lack of closed captions (1 Viewer)

TMZ

Can't imagine what the captions would read other than explaining in the beginning that they're only step-siblings.

i thought for sure we woulda had scratch n' sniff capabilities by now :shrug:

Eagerly awaiting this becoming a class action suit when this guy is joined by everyone who watches porn in the bathroom with the sound way down.

Wait until the blind man sues because it caused him to masturbate.

I can't check now (at work) but I suspect the site is ADA compliant by allowing audio navigation. I can't comment on the user experience though.

For the record:

4:47 PM PT -- Pornhub's VP, Corey Price, tells TMZ ... "We understand that Yaroslav Suris is suing Pornhub for claiming we’ve denied the deaf and hearing impaired access to our videos. While we do not generally comment on active lawsuits, we’d like to take this opportunity to point out that we do have a closed captions category."

I thought that stuff made you go blind, not deaf.

Yeah, I was gonna say, they're there. Stumbled upon them once by accident*. Was very confused until I read the 'category' tag. :oldunsure:

*For research purposes only.

General Malaise · Jan 17, 2020

Really feel like instead of closed captions they should have employed nude models to deliver sign language off in a corner.

Using the mouse left handed is an iffy proposition.

Oh man, new genre for pr0n (that probably already exists) for me to break into the world of cinema: corny Charlie Chaplin style silent movies

Arizona Ron · Jan 17, 2020

"I'm ready when you are" [sound of live trout being beaten with newspaper] "more more"

"Now give me daddy's favorite gift" [gets under glass coffee table]

[sound of entire crock pot full of pot roast being poured onto table]

- end scene

What are the odds that pornhub set this up for publicity? Brilliant if so. Best lawsuit ever.

Osaurus · Jan 17, 2020

No way a judge will see his point

If they explain it I hope we get the whole story for free and we don't have to pay extra for the full length version.

DallasDMac · Jan 18, 2020

Oddly enough, I have managed to follow the plot of Pornhub videos with the sound completely off and no captions. I must be some kind of savant or something.

KingPrawn · Jan 18, 2020

What is pornhub? Never heard of it.

-OZ- · Jan 18, 2020

There's sound? :oldunsure:

I mean, what's pornhub? :unsure:

elbowrm · Jan 18, 2020

How does this dude know when his wife is coming in the room?

reminds me of the joke “what’s a husband’s most sensitive body part when he’s jerking off?”

his ears

bicycle_seat_sniffer · Jan 18, 2020

he cant hear the JOI......

Wrigley · Jan 18, 2020

I think they'll beat it

You'd think so, but that's the rub. They still need to handle it just like any other case.

zamboni · Jan 18, 2020

I feel even more bad for the guy that he can’t enjoy the great music.

Or follow the plot

ClownCausedChaos2 · Jan 19, 2020

How does someone closed caption the sound of a hand getting stuck in a garbage disposal?

Try setting your phone notification/ringtone to the "pornhub logo" sound/beats that play at the start of every video. Then when your phone goes off look around and see who recognizes the sound.

Pornhub has theme music??? Man, maybe one day...

I only watch for the articles

That’s got to be some kind of awkward when Corey’s son brings his dad to career day at school.

Not quite as awkward as "Bring (That's Someone's) Daughter to Work Day".
