Deaf man sues Pornhub over lack of closed captioning

Couldn’t he just read the lips?

fox-

A man is reportedly suing an adult video website for alleged rights violations because there is a lack of closed captioning on at least some videos.

According to TMZ, Yaroslav Suris’ lawsuit against Pornhub claims the lack of closed captioning violates the rights of deaf and hearing-impaired under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

In court documents cited by TMZ, Suris claims the deaf and hearing impaired can’t understand the audio portion of videos on the websites, and listed a number of videos that the man watched, but couldn’t understand the dialogue.

In the documents, Suris reportedly claims he and those in similar situations would pay money for a premium subscription, but calls it pointless without the subtitles.

  1. …I guess he’s deaf from birth, so it would make sense that what he IMAGINES he’s missing is MUCH better than the REALITY.

    …not that I’D know anything about that, I was NEVER young and inquisitive, so shut UP…

    “Couldn’t he just read the lips?”

    …that would be a MUCH more controversial question if it were a BLIND guy complaining…

  4. The subtitles would make him laugh, and his orgasm hopes shot.

    Btw, it’d be a funny prank to put scholarly words as the subtitles. (Porn girls have very small vocabs: ‘slap that ****’.

    The funnist is german porn women, when they use the word ‘schvantz’.

  5. Here you go:
    “Pizza for Bambi.”
    “I’m here to look at your plumbing problem, ma’am.”
    “Nurse, hand me that big black thing.”
    “My husband doesn’t appreciate me like these four well-hung strangers do.”

    That’s pretty much it for dialogue. The performers aren’t really hired for their thespian skills.

  6. What a maroon!
    There ALWAYS
    “English”
    “English SDH” (subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing)
    he just needs
    “English SSC” (subtitles for sexual cripples)
