This is also what Facebook does.

Same result: screen readers and assistive software is rendered useless. Basically is a sign of "I hate disabled people, and AI too"

Fair concern. obscrd actually preserves screen reader access. CSS flexbox order is a visual reordering property, so assistive tech follows the visual order and reads the text correctly. Contact components use sr-only spans with clean text and aria-hidden on the obfuscated layer. We target WCAG 2.2 AA compliance.

Happy to have a11y experts poke at it and point out gaps.
