“Hacking Accessible Pedestrian Signals is Not a Joke: It’s a Civil Rights Violation” from @LFLegal lflegal.com/2025/04/aps-hack/
Yeah, not only is this bad form it’s also potentially deadly. Lainey does a good job of laying out the history and what went into originally getting these in place. These jerks undermined it all.

I've been in talks with #TheCrowHillCompany, makers of The Vertical Piano, Vaults (free), String Murmurations and so on.
They wanted to find out about people's use of accessible music-making tools such as NKS, so I said I'd forward their email to other VI musicians.
Your feedback would really help them, so if you've a mind, please do fill it out.
The Crow Hill Company are readying a re-launch of our entire catalogue.
As such as are looking to improve our accessibility across our full instrument and effects range.
We would love to discover more from the community on how they interact with software based instruments and the tools they use to do so.
We have included a short survey link below, and as a token of gratitude have included a £20 (GBP) off coupon code for anyone who takes part in the survey.
The coupon has no expiration date and we have plenty of instruments under this limit coming out in the months ahead for you to enjoy.
Thanks again

@pitermach It's using Juce, but with a lot of unlabelled buttons. They do know about it, as I had a meeting with them this morning and was able to screen-share and let them know that lots of stuff doesn't work.
It seems that they're using the Ujam libraries, so it's up to Ujam to modify their code to allow accessibility, but they can pass this feedback to them.
Rodes also use the same framework.
If you've got any libraries where the main sample content uses the .blob format, then you've used Ujam's UI's.
Oh boo hoo! Someone doesn't like the new alt text warning on Mastodon!
> This warning is extremely annoying, I wish I could get rid of it and be allowed to post images without alt text if I want to without being asked every time like every other website. I know it is not ideal for accessibility, but I'm not going to add alt text because the warning tells me too, I'm too busy already procrastinating my life in other ways.
Go cry me a fucking river.
How can we make assholes like this even more mad?

That's fair comment, but the OP is highlighting the fact that Google (and others) are deliberately making it difficult to opt out of using these AI models, presumably to drive adoption and encourage engagement for training purposes.
This obvious subterfuge combined with what we already know about echo chambers and social media herding leaves me wondering whether those who refuse to use AI will end up being the last free-thinkers in the West.
