Although don't buy from amazon as Jeff Bezos is an arse.
I can see where they are coming from. Hearing types and tech-bros combining together has the potential to monetise and exploit deaf culture something horrible. My NVQ tutor was big into "deaf power" and an advocate of destroying cochlear implants as they were slowly eroding the standard of BSL within the Deaf community. http://www.beautifulbsl.co.uk/about-me/
