What is AudioEye?
It’s Magic Techbro Dust¹ you sprinkle on your website to – poof! – make it accessible.
Only it seems to keep getting folks sued for being inaccessible:
Almost like you can’t magically make an inaccessible site accessible or something… 🤔

I should post mpeg-ts stream dumps of them, tbh - for fun
especially the old Netflix loading screen
my TV is a bit odd when it comes to the TV tuner
It shows everything it can find, without regard for if it should be hidden or not according to the program table
So it shows me a really old Netflix loading screen on 168, a test channel with advertisements on a loop on 777, and OTA update channels for some receiver boxes in the channel list
I THOUGHT Y'ALL HATED INFLATION THATS WHAT YOU TOLD MY BANKER FRIEND LAST WEEK BUT NOOOOOO
DISGUSTED at the double standards i see on mastodon.
When I, a silicon valley startup tech guy, talk about wanting activitypub to be the Next Big Thing, to see the fediverse grow endlessly, to expand to impossible sizes, I'm a Dirty Capitalist who you hate and want to murder
But when some FURRY posts about how they want to be INFLATED all HUGE until they're the BIGGEST AROUND
EVERYONE THINKS THEY'RE JUST FANTASTIC
I only know of one CA that absolutely makes sure of this - certum - and that's probably because their cheapest code signing cert is €25, so it would be trivial to test
and before anyone mentions using virustotal, it's a minimum of five digits USD for using it in a commercial, automated capacity - and I doubt I can get that greenlit for something that happens three times a year and is solved in a couple hours
for how much of an issue "oops false positive on our software so it's deleted by antiviruses" is, no company offers a free (or even simple to order) command line scanner so we can actually check before releasing software
like, I'm sorry F-Secure is deleting our software, we had literally no way of knowing before release
