Recently, I saw some news page where there was a video, but it was just stringing together the sentences from the article on top of a random stock image.
I was extremely confused why this exists, but then realized, I hadn't unmuted the video. Surely, it reads it out for sight impaired folks.
...nope, there was no audio. They just figured, they should have a worse way of reading. And of course, it would float on top of the article, too, to make reading that worse as well.
Damn, they were this close to caring about disabled people...
Probably some SEO bullshit.
