They mean in the USA, it's based on a misintepretation of the graph below the quoted phrase, or on poor wording on their part.
The graph says there are as many vision-impaired American internet users as there Canadian internet users - not the entire population - around 20-25 millions (the graph is hard to read). I'm sceptical of that number because it suggests ~10% of the USA is vision impaired, seems too high.
Anyway the only reason I care is that I'm Canadian ;)
- Paul-ish 10y agoIf the numbers include older people who undergo the usual loss of near sight vision, it isn't so hard to believe. I think a lot of web developers are young and forget that older people use the internet and that older users may have a hard time seeing the small font some webpages use.
