[08:35] schestowitz-TR2 Red Hat this morning: "Making applications accessible to disabled users is both good business and often required by law." Open page: "Sorry, you need to enable JavaScript to visit this website." On, the IRONY! https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2022/11/03/nodejs-reference-architecture-part-10-accessibility

[08:45] mjg59_ Where's the irony there?

[08:45] mjg59_ There's no conflict between javascript and accessibility

[09:14] schestowitz-TR2 you probably have no partially-sighted friends

[09:15] schestowitz-TR2 iirc, your blog demanded JS too

[09:15] schestowitz-TR2 at one point

[09:16] schestowitz-TR2 I bet aurora doesn't have any algo to pick out people who walk with blind person's stick

[09:16] schestowitz-TR2 clownflare js is vastly worse than this

[09:16] schestowitz-TR2 it now only obstructs people with disabilities

[09:17] schestowitz-TR2 it also obstructs people who want to read in privacy

[10:08] mjg59_ I used to work on accessibility software

[10:09] mjg59_ All the accessibility tech I'm aware of works just fine with browsers running javascript
