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 AM, November 3

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

16:27 schestowitz-TR2; they ruppressed facts

16:27 schestowitz-TR2; because it might "help Trump"

16:27 schestowitz-TR2; apropos, other words lost their meaning

16:27 schestowitz-TR2; sadly

16:27 schestowitz-TR2; they overgeneralise
