    They can’t do that because of accessibility reasons. If they did that, a disabled person has grounds to sue them for proper aria hints & controls.

    It doesn’t matter what kind of content it is, either. It must be made accessible.

      Uh. I don’t know how it is on the other side of the ocean, but around here, it’s a nice goal, but there’s much more care going into making messes than implementing accessible websites. Even official government services sometimes just barely slaps an “accessibility conformity: partial/none” and keep going on.

      I’m not sure having an accessible web is enough to overcome the thirst for ad money and control.
