Accessibility Advocacy
Hello All,
I am posting this here for anyone who wants to help. Some of you may have seen it. I had David Woodbridge tweet it yesterday.
As many of you know by now, Samsung made a disturbing attack against the blind community. They are trying to block the sale of Apple products in Germany. They are claiming voice over violates one of their patents. Luckily, the judge temporarily blocked this. Their is another case going on, and they are waiting outcome. apple owns the American patent they say it violates.
Well anyways, I started a petition on Change .Org about the clear attack on the blind. The only people who will be hurt over this is the blind community. We all know that Apple has most extensive accessibility in their products.
I am including a link to the petition. I hope you will sign it. Hopefully, you pass it on to family and friends. It was posted yesterday. Their are already 125 signatures.
Thank you for your time. Let Samsung know attacking the blind community isn't wise. For financial and PR reasons. http://chn.ge/XTrva7
