Tech companies have shut out millions. Apple, Google and Netflix now want to change that

When tech companies roll out new products, they’re not always thinking about making them accessible to people with disabilities. This shuts millions of people out. Thankfully, more organizations and events like Global Accessibility Awareness Day are shedding light on this issue, pushing tech giants like Apple, Google and Netflix to make their offerings available to everyone. There’s been significant progress over the last several years, but disability advocates like Zach Anner and Tatiana Lee note there’s a long road ahead before everyone is fully included in product designs and rollouts.
