@alastc @SteveFaulkner The best thing in this scenario is that there's no such thing as a working overlay, and the worst is that overlay vendors like AudioEye now have the capital to claim that "See? Even an accessibility veteran approves of our product", whether he actually does or not. It's already been extensively documented and demonstrated that, from where things stand now, there is not an overlay solution that can fix web accessibility, because overlays are at the wrong end of the stack just for starters. Bringing on an accessibility veteran will not fix this.
