The Enough Already Project

There's a new invention making use of TV's closed captioning. The Enough Already Project allows users to program specific names, commercials or voices into a device. When it is connected to a cable box, it will mute the TV when the selected items come up. Anyone sick of hearing about Kim Kardashian or tired of certain commercials or someone just wanting to censor parts of the audio of particular shows, this will do it for you. Creator Matt Richardson says it will connect to any cable box. He explains the technical aspects of his invention in the video below.
