“This lawsuit against Adrian Roselli impacts every person who cares about including disabled people in the digital world. It impacts all of us who speak, write, and advocate for digital accessibility that is fair, equitable, and ethical.”

A software vendor sued a prominent accessibility consultant for (soundly) criticizing their product. Here’s @LFLegal on why that matters: https://www.lflegal.com/2023/07/adrian-roselli-slapp-lawsuit/

what sort of a world have we made when a student almost bursts into tears because they’ve knocked on the wrong door and disturbed someone?
Someone working at a school, who’s lifeblood is students.
Someone who’s wages are being paid by the fact that students exist in the first place.
It costs nothing to accept their apology graciously, direct them to where they need to be with a smile, and tell them that everyone gets lost sometimes.
Why would you even go into teaching if you can’t cope with that level of being a basic Human being.

It’s come to my attention that social media sites are supposed to be collecting tax filing information from tax preparers for its users. I regret to inform you that Infosec.exchange has been negligent in this area and I would like to sincerely apologize to all that I may have offended by failing to collect this information like real social media sites are supposed to. I have fired the department responsible for the serious oversight.

Thank you and goodnight.
