Re: amazon's accesability contact.

Hi Mary, I am sorry if you feel I am speaking in any way unfavorably to MR. Korn's dedication. I am not, since how he personally feels about accessibility is less important than his ability to insure fully that Amazon's website complies with standards. As for Kindle progress, I will defer

Well, if you look at what they have done with their Kindle devices in the last year or year and a half, plus how they have made the Alexa Apple whole lot more usable, I would say they're moving in the right direction. They are also moving in the right direction with their screen reader on the

It starts with the first step. But was that not already taken a long time ago? The W3C guidelines, are they just that? Or have they been adopted and agreed upon? Is there any legal teeth in then? From E.T.'s Keyboard... Are We Alone in the Universe? ancient.ali...@icloud.com On

Re: amazon's accesability contact.

Honestly that depends on Mr. Korn's personal background. Sometimes management leads with their own experience of a disability, instead of recognizing that inclusion refers to the floor not the person using the floor. One does not find a different Walmart for those arriving in a van

No. Peter corn has been doing accessibility for a very long time. He certainly is familiar with the guidelines and the nuts and the bolts. But he is not going nor should we expect him to answer everyone's complaint. They certainly should have people further down the line from Peter corn who can

Re: amazon's accesability contact.

Indeed, there should be no separate site. after all access is more than about screen readers. How an individual interacts is tied to other things.the changes to the so called access site are rather new. I agree about the watered down functionality as well. Unless this has changed

The broader problem is having a separate site for screaming ears at all. I have been on that site, not recently. When I was on it, it was very simplistic. It didn't offer anything like the full experience. But I didn't see anything that required a mouse. Mary Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 16,

I know for a fact that Peter corn is the head of the excess ability initiative and Amazon. I don't know who to take it too. I do know just as a general rule the people who are in charge of large efforts are not in the habit of answering nuts and bolts? This on an individual basis, just based on

I suppose I will find out as I sent him a copy of the email I provided the accessibility feedback team. Speaking only for myself, I would hope he took an interest. The lack of keyboard interaction, most notably on the areas defined as being for screen reader use does not reflect well on
