If you or someone you love (or even vaguely tolerate) is using #accessiBe, perhaps send them this information about the class action lawsuit against accessiBe for lying about its #overlay:

“Socks, lies, and accessibility”
janmaarten.com/gaad-2023/

Where @janmaarten shows that just a couple days after #accessiBe’s CEO promised to stop being such a lying liarface it went and used sock puppet Twitter accounts to promote its #overlay.

As I keep saying, past behavior is a predictor of future behavior (side-eyes #AudioEye, #UserWay, #FACILiti).

Let’s remember #AudioEye is a bully:
adrianroselli.com/2022/04/my-c…

Its #overlay (still) does not work:
adrianroselli.com/2023/02/audi…

It SLAPPs critics (I am not the only one):
adrianroselli.com/2023/05/audi…

…and in the end harms users and #accessibility industry as a whole:
adrianroselli.com/2024/01/audi…

Throwing investor money at a clear PR ploy is not a fix (didn’t help #accessiBe). If anything, it highlights the scam.

Reputation washing works both ways. I feel bad for its new CAO who likely had good intentions.


Search Engine Land (guest/paying author) is pretty clear that you should not use accessibility overlays (such as #accessiBe, #UserWay, #AudioEye, etc):

“Are you using an accessibility overlay to help disabled users? Don’t!”
