Hi charlese.
I fully agree, indeed my phd has a very similar discussion as part of my
deffinition of accessibility, however frequently it's not possible to
challenge such measures since, like google's captures they are simply handed
down from on high by our mighty corporate or governmental masters, who have
as much idea of practical access as a duck does of trade routes across the
sahara.
It's fine if you can A, challenge such judgements, and B, get the big whig's
to listen, as indeed you did in your example with the management idiots, but
more often than not that is simply not possible, ---- look at the problems
contacting capcom, nintendo or any other company about access measures, or
Microsoft's very friendly post xp winows interface as a perfect example.
This is another point I've put in my phd, that accessibility's affectivness
is only rightly something that can be judged by the deisres of it's
recipient, not by anyone else, however that's unfortunately not the way the
world works.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
