Hi,
If you talk but you think what you have talk wrong..and you hear what
you say.. It will be same for deaf peoples.
First: I don't think we should regard RTT as an accessibility thing or a
'deaf spec'. In the context of online counselling for example there has
been quite a bit of discussion about the use of RTT.
Secondly, the way we process a spoken conversation is fundamentally
different from the way we process a written conversation. When we are
talking, only very few people are able to recall word for word what the
other has said. While listening we interpret what we hear and we
memorize our interpretation, not the words. While speaking we use that
mechanism to correct what we have said. People often start saying
something totally different then where they end with.
With written text, once send, the text is literally black on white in
front of the receiver. With RTT there is no way to mask a change of mind
while writing and less opportunity to undo what was written. If I have
to compare RTT to some analogy of spoken text, then it is like recording
a spoken conversation and replaying and analysing every mistake before
answering.
I don't say RTT is good or bad, useful or useless. But I oppose to the
assumption that RTT is a minor privacy intrusion compared to an audio or
video chat. It is a different kind of privacy intrusion and should be
treated like that.
Yes, but Mark say that users can switch off or on to option RTT. He
have build a button (Fast Text) when he want to protect own privacy.
it's simple solution for him.
