Ich habe NotebookLM um eine Audio-Zusammenfassung eines schwedischen Webinars auf YouTube gebeten. Und nun tun 2 Stimmen so, als seien sie Menschen, mit ähs und gegenseitiger Bestätigung. Es verbindet diese unglaubliche Power des Universalübersetzers mit allem, was an Podcasts nervt.

What’s the Difference Between WCAG, the EAA, and EN 301 549? Complex topic indeed.
I love a good food metaphor, so here we go:
- WCAG is the cookbook that tells you how to prepare accessible digital content.
- The EAA is the food safety law: it makes serving accessible content mandatory in the EU.

Das US Regime ächtet 350+ Wörter, die auf offiziellen Seiten nicht mehr erwähnt werden dürfen, Begriffe wie: Freude, Frauen, Vielfalt, Behinderung… An US Schulen werden Bücher verboten, darunter Anne Franks Tagebücher, Aldous Huxley und George Orwells 1984… Die Universitäten werden gleichgeschaltet…

„History is written by the victors“ can be experienced as it happens. Now even dreams are shattered. I am grateful that my daughter grew up in a time where media depicted strong female characters. The whitewashing and facist censorship of US government websites is appalling.

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is quite long, and, honestly, hard to digest.
@tink.uk breaks it down and explains in clear terms which digital products and services must meet accessibility requirements and what businesses need to do to comply.

It's quite an event: every three years, the EU Member States present the state of digital accessibility of their public services. This is the second exercise of its kind, so it also reflects trends since 2020.

ADA title II requires higher education institutions in the US to provide all online communication in accessible form. The #csun talk by @lflegal.bsky.social opened my eyes for additional connections to stay hopeful that ADA title II will have consequences for #accessibility worldwide.

We are in the middle of an authoritarian government takeover.

Columbia University is one of a few strategically chosen targets to gut higher ed.

I don’t want to believe this is real, but I trust the source. No mainstream/industry media reporting it yet, as I imagine verification needs to be done.
I’m told this is a real letter. It basically says, “We’ll destroy Columbia unless you destroy it first.”

Three years ago today, the day before my 31st birthday, I launched the Accessible Social website. Since then, more than 110,000 people worldwide have visited the site, representing nearly every country on the planet.

I couldn't be prouder of Accessible Social and the many people it has helped. 🎉
