Yep, I think ultimately what needs to happen is that sites that use
visual verifications as a means of prooving that you're a human being
need to find an alternative scheme. I know people with perfect vision
who have problems with them, so we definitely are not alone on this
one. Some sites like google and some others use a system where a set
of numbers is spoken, and something that sounds like several voices
being spoken on a tape that's playing backwards is behind it so that
it masks the sound just enough, butdoesn't keep someone from hearing
the numbers to type them in.
. I like the system because if you can get to the edit box quickly
enough you can type the code as it's read out. But no unfortunately,
JAWS might be a hell of a screenreader, but it's not good enough to
read unlabeled graphics for visual verifications.
visual verification, and that's exactly what it is, visual, need to
find an alternative system.
