@weirdwriter I also find this article and it's comments to be quite interesting. I don't understand allot of this so analyzing for author bias is hard for me, but finding any good info on #accessiBe is hard, so I'll take what I can get.
But I agree, this company is a problem, and in general automated access fixers and overlays are a bad idea.

What do you guys think, are comprehensive #AccessibilityToolkit solutions that continuously scan and fix #A11Y errors like #AccessiBE, Access Alchemy, and Make-Sense, the way of the future [despite the often sub par results] simply because of the cost savings and ease of use?

Or do you think that human #accessibility testers are still going to be important to the future of #webdev in a decade.
Are the potential benefits of fast fixes and consistent monitoring promising enough for end users to be worth giving them space to grow even if they aren't great right now?
