FRISKY FRIDAY FORUM: Hearing Impaired Man Sues PornHub Over Closed Captioning
A hearing-impaired man has initiated a class-action suit against Pornhub, for not offering a closed caption option on its X-rated videos.
The suit, filed by Yaroslay Suris, claims the lack of closed captioning is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, according to court documents.
The paperwork even lists a few of the videos, which Suris has had trouble understanding, such as “Sexy Cop Gets Witness to Talk” and “Daddy 4K — Allison comes to Talk About Money to Her Boys’ Naughty Father.”
The lawsuit asks the court to order Pornhub to include closed captions, as well as an undisclosed amount of damages.
In a statement to TMZ, Pornhub responded: “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.” It appears that Suris missed that category.
