While we're on the topic, I have a question:
Are there large companies that have deliberately made their products less accessible to those with disabilities, because they're completely hostile to scrapers (and the open web)?
Is it even possible to make a completely closed/hard-to-scrape web app that is still 100% accessible to the blind?

I'm not aware of any, but that doesn't mean they're not out there, in some specialized niche perhaps. > Is it even possible to make a completely closed/hard-to-scrape web app that is still 100% accessible to the blind? I would guess not. The headless browsers that scrapers are already using could be extended to expose their accessibility tree to scripts as well as the DOM.
