All of these ideas came from someone at the National Center for Accessibility.
The National Center for Accessibility.
I called the phone number at the bottom of the article, presuming I'd be connected to the "journalist" so that I could ask if they spoke to any actual PWDs before writing this dreck ("make sure the technology is easy to understand" because crips and old folk don't understand complicated stuff, every single one of us needs the simplest things available) and instead I was appallingly connected directly to said center.
I wanted to ask for this York person to ask where these ideas had come from but I didn't have the spoons to challenge it all thoughtfully so I just hung up.
But someone empowered to be quoted in universally released media by The National Center for Accessibility thinks this way about us.

I don't even know what to do with that.
