Hi all.<\/p>\n
Ok this time i’ve decided to be a little more diplamatic when it comes to asking web venders for what we want.<\/p>\n
I’ve written about this cool rock station in the past
\nwww.kqlz.org<\/p>\n
basically to sign up with them, you need to enter a security code which is embeded in an immage on there site.<\/p>\n
I’ve written to them and have asked they allow blind people to sign up.<\/p>\n
Here’s my letter to them and I urge all blind people to use the web site feedback link and also complain long loud and shout at the top of there lungs.<\/p>\n
i’m sick of web developers who choose to exclude blind people from accessing sites simply because there ignorant.
\nThey contstantly use the excuse sorry we didn’t know.<\/p>\n
Bull shit you didn’t know.<\/p>\n
Why can’t the miserable bastards open there eyes and put themselves in our position?
\nI’ll tell you why because there useless and half the time the idiots never reply.<\/p>\n
I’ve never felt so outraged and discriminated against in all my life.<\/p>\n
I’m going to sock it to them and if they don’t take notice i’m going to urge all my readers to abuse swear cry shout yell and scream very very loud and maybe then the nuckle heads will situp and take notice.<\/p>\n
Ok enough of my rambling.<\/p>\n
Here’s my calm collected letter I pain stakingly handcrafted myself.<\/p>\n
Hi there.<\/p>\n
I’m writing as a blind person who uses a screen reader to read the text on screen and use speech output.<\/p>\n
My complaint is to signup for access to your site, seen’s our screen reading software can’t read the image when signing up to enter the security code.<\/p>\n
Isn’t there another way you can allow blind people who use screen reading software to signup without having to enter a security code?<\/p>\n
Your shutting out heaps of people who use internet radio on a daily basis and having to get sighted assistance to signup is a challenge and sometimes not possible.<\/p>\n
Could you see if a work around could be sort to allow blind folks to sign up and enjoy your site as well?<\/p>\n
We’re being shut out of a great service and we feel we should be able to access your site like our sighted counterparts.<\/p>\n
Thanks for your time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
