Hey Listers, 

I am asking for your assistance. I have started a petition on Change .Org for 
Google Accessibility. I started this petition because Google declared to the 
world they were dedicated to Accessibility. However; their actions do not 
reflect this statement. Of course browsers and email are accessible. This is a 
requirement by law. That's where the dedication ends. I'm including some 
examples. 

The first example is Google +. If you have ever looked at the app; there are 
many links and buttons which aren't clearly labeled. The useability is pretty 
much non existent. 

For those who have tried an Android device; its not Google that provides the 
majority of accessibility. It's  3rd party developers and apps. You could spend 
a whole day trying to find an adequate way to get a task done. Of course; this 
is because you must find work arounds. I don't know why any blind individual 
would choose Android at this point. Its not like Apple software which just 
works out of the box. 

The last example is the new Hangouts app. It falls into the same category as 
Google +. Links and buttons aren't clearly labeled. The useability again is 
lacking. 

Please take a moment to sign the petition. Tell Google to live up to the 
promise of accessibility in their products. More importantly; tell them the 
disabled community is not a second -class society. 
Thank you for your help!
