[gui-talk] is webvisum no more?

[Mike Freeman]

I've stayed silent until now. However, the wording of your question disturbs me. You ask if the blind have lost the freedom to solve CAPTCHAs. The blind haven't ever *lacked* the freedom to solve CAPTCHAs. They just didn't have electronic tools to do so until Salona and Webvism. WE, the blind, could always use a reader if we felt it sufficiently important, just as we could and still must do so often with snailmail. To me, readers are a perfectly respectable tool to solve CAPTCHAs, if someone inconvenient at times. With the exception of PayPal, I choose not to patronize sites that use CAPTCHAs. That solves my problem for me. (grin)

Hi list I have noticed that I’m getting a server connection error on webvisum when I log on to firefox.  At first I thought was down for some work, however just now read a message.  that says that webvisum isn’t even an ixisting domaine.  is it gone have blind lost the freedom of solving capchas or is this just temporary.  thanks
