Do not allow your child to become a victim of autocorrect

About 22.6 million adults in the United Kingdom have experienced autochrome by changing their name, or their name being marked as incorrect, this is 41 percent of the population.

A new campaign that I am not a Typo (Ianat), is calling on technology giants to correct the control of autochoad spelling and magic to make the technology more comprehensive and has released some results of a Censuswide study to support its cause.

Among people who experience self -corrected by changing their name or marking it inaccurate, 61 percent say they feel negative about this (it is unpleasant, angry, unresponsive, upset, excluded and/or unhappy) – and one in ten say that technology is ‘racist’. More than four in 10 (41 percent) say technology companies must update their naming dictionaries to better reflect today’s multicultural society.

The phenomenon of the wrong designation is the most widespread for children 16-24 years old, with 62 percent considered ‘typos’-whose names appear on new books of free and audio book 100 incorrect children’s names.

Cathal Wogan, Ianat campaign, says:

As the title suggests, this book contains 100 incorrect children’s names. ‘But’, you can say, ‘a child’s name cannot be incorrect, for sure.’ Well, you’re right. However, your phone or your laptop may disagree with you.

Day every day, potential parents to be named after the baby’s names to find the beautiful or inspiring names they can give to their children. But if they come up with something very ethnic, very interesting, very different cultural, that name could be incorrect. Error a typo. That is why we have written 100 incorrect children’s names, and that is why we want technology giants to correct the control of autochoad spelling and magic.

A 2,227 uncle from 5,672 (39 percent) names given to girls in England and Wales (with a minimum of three phenomena) were ‘typos’ in I am not testing a typo. For boys, 2,930 out of 6,400 (46 percent) names were ‘typos’. From 16-24, 58 percent know someone else, whose name is self-confident or flags inaccurate.

Wogan adds, “It is clear that this is an issue that deeply affects and removes millions of people. Typos number is crawling and while we have seen some famous names added to dictionaries, there are still a large number of well -known children’s names that are still of the famous technology of celebrities? technician.
