WCAG

Accessibility Is Still Broken (Here's Why)

The Accessibility Paradox

It is 2026, and we are still failing at the basics. We’ve had WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) for decades. Browser support for ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) is better than ever. We have an explosion of automated testing tools, linters, and “accessible” component libraries. Yet, the annual WebAIM Million report continues to show that over 95% of the top million homepages have detectable WCAG 2 failures.
