Equal Access: HDMI is Inaccessible

[Banjo]

Hello everybody, I'm glad to be back here after a lengthy vacation. I finally decided on a subject to cover. I feel that it is quite a serious situation. Please watch the vlog to learn why it concerns the deaf community in a big way. The vlog is captioned.

After watching the vlog, I hope you are now more aware of how serious this situation is becoming. The HDMI is becoming the standard of watching HD contents on HDTV. If we don’t do something soon, it may be too late. The damage is already being done as we speak.

To file a complaint with the FCC (Federal Communications Comission), you can click here to enter the page on their website. I hope you will do your part and support the deaf community in fighting the FCC’s way of approving technology to be used by the public. If a new cable, equipment and more are inaccessible to the deaf and hard of hearing, they should not be approved for mainstream market.

The change needs to be made now. Not tomorrow, not next week, not in a month, not in a year, not in a decade.

Hope y'all can help me out on this one since it concerns the HDMI cable. I love the cable, but they need to start supporting CC (Closed Captioning) now or else.
