This is an article about a lawsuit filed against a digital accessibility advocate named Adrian Roselli. Adrian has been outspoken against a type of software called an overlay. This type of overlay promises to make websites accessible for disabled people with just one line of code.

    This is interesting and an issue I was not previous aware of, though this particular article writer doesn’t know how tf to communicate with laypeople apparently. Even following their hyperlinks to their other articles I remained unclear on what exactly these overlays are and what the problems with them are.
