This is the first I've heard of the "highly debated" topic of VFO
acquiring NVDA. To me it sounds more like a blogger trying to get more
hits on his site.
NVDA has long had funding from government, corporate, and charitable
foundations. But the more users donate the more progress will be made.
Unfortunately I doubt that many who can well afford it give anything in
this shameful me me me world of today.
Just my politically incorrect two cents worth.

Thanks, Russ.
Chris G.'s point is an excellent one, though, i.e., NVDA needs bucks.
Best,
Rod

Dear all,
‘Will VFO Acquire NVDA?’ has been a highly debated topic in the
blindness community in recent times. Find out the answer to this
inquiry with all the cogent reasoning, justification and arguments you
may desire as I explore all the possibilities and probabilities in my
new blog post.
‘Now, let me restate the question of the hour in a simplified form –
will the VFO-Group, owners of the Freedom Scientific made JAWS screen
reader, after phasing out its subsidiary AI Squared’s Window Eyes
screen reader, venture out (caught the pun?) to buy out NV Access and
its free and open source NVDA screen reader, and thereby establish an
absolute monopoly as far as Windows screen readers go?’
