stop shoving your wants on others when you can fix it on your own. Just write a chrome plugin using ai that adjusts css to set contrast ratio of your choice. Can even use a local llm to figure out replacement colors.

Just get some concrete and some lumber, and build that wheelchair ramp.

You can even hire a contractor to follow you around town all day building them as needed.

as a comparison, i think the wheelchair itself is people making their own accessibility.

the wheelchair is not built into the site, and only requires a few hooks or the odd helping hand to work.

mapping back to software, and especially websites, your user agent is your user agent. it should render websites in the way you want to see them, regardless of what colours the designer chose.

an AI accessibility browser is more like a wheel chair than a ramp

right, so in this analogy i should be legally required to have wheelchair accessibility in my house?
