As a kid, I learned English from English language cartoons on FilmNet. I learned from German TV shows. My passion for Swedish crime series taught me Swedish.
But now, the largest tv medium of our time, YouTube, has begun auto-translating everything. Future generations will not be exposed to foreign languages and be inspired to take an interest.
There was no public review of this, no democratic vote. One company just decided to turn foreign cultures off and make the world dumber.
For profit.

I have a small YT-account that probably nobody cares enough about to complain, but:
WHERE THE HECK CAN I TURN THIS 💩 OFF!
I had watched several videos already with that crappy AI voice over and it always makes me wanna 🤮. So I want to spare my few viewers this ordeal and turn it off, but I seem to not be able to find this setting. Where is it hidden?
Edit: Found it! And it was not on! 🍀 So either I had deactivated before or it never was on... 🤷
