Ethereal 003 — Accessibility
Accessibility statement
Privacy controls are worthless if they cannot be understood or operated.
Research prototype
Supported

Intent
The prototype is designed to remain usable at 200% text zoom.
Every temporary or protected state is described in text as well as colour, and simulated expiry is announced rather than implied by animation alone.
Where reduced motion is requested by the operating system, transitions are replaced by immediate state changes.
Accessibility is workstream 07 of the Ethereal 003 method and has not yet been formally tested with assistive technology.
