Episode 103 – Twitter, The Technological Hindenburg

It’s an all new That Real Blind Tech show. The entire gang is here in their lair of choice.

 

We start off discussing the upcoming Sight Tech Global, as Brian will be the Host of this year’s Virtual Conference which you can register for free to attend here.

 

Air Canada is the latest airline to make a blind person’s life absolutely miserable while traveling with their guide dog. Will the airlines ever get it?

 

It happened a week ago, but we dive in to the blindness communities reaction to the entire accessibility team being laid off at Twitter. Allison educates us a little about the new social media craze of Mastodon. Or as the kids are calling it, the new Twitter. And finally just when you think things couldn’t get any worse at Twitter Elon Musk goes all nuclear. And because we doubt this will be the last we talk about Elon Musk, we try and decide on a nickname for Elon Musk moving forward.

After a discussion about an injury a friend of the podcast had, we dive in to the good and bad we have been experiencing on Mac OS Ventura.
