Poor deaf kids. Not because they’re being held captive but because they’re relying on shitty automatic captions.
For example, Czech was only added very recently and the captions really suck, they change the meaning of most sentences and even include spelling errors.
Everyone making scripted videos should at least:
go through their script to convert it into a transcript (match what’s actually been said – looking at you CGP Grey – and remove visual cues)
upload it for YouTube’s auto-timing (which is not perfect but we’ll take it)
Too bad the FCC’s captioning act is toothless, even TV stations (like HBO) uploading their content to YouTube don’t bother importing captions even though they’re legally required to.
