DisAbility, Computing and the Law:
What You Should Know
Tzipporah Benavraham
Laws have enabled the use of technology by disabled
persons in many ways. As the enablements become greater and as technology
progresses, we may see yet more laws and regulations. In brief, adaptive
technology has enabled disabled persons for many years. It continues to
do so in an array of ways. Law both quantifies and also stipulates the
use of technology by disabled persons. The singular proof and affirmation
this will continue is the progression of past laws up to the present time.
It is obvious that an array of thoughtful laws and judicial decisions
has made this tech available in great quantity. The proliferation of these
highly enabling machines will continue.
I hope that this has provided a valuable and useful
guide to the reader. If you should have any questions, please refer them
to me at Project EASI.
