Una reflexión muy interesante sobre las capas de accesibilidad en Overlays Misunderstand Accessibility:
To talk about this subject, let’s start with a hypothetical. We’ll hypothesize that accessibility overlays perfectly solve all accessibility problems on a site. Let’s imagine a future world where the technology used by an accessibility overlay is able to magically transform a user’s experience on a website from a completely blocking experience to something absolutely delightful.
Yeah, it’s a long-shot hypothesis. But work with me, here.
Even in that situation, I would continue to oppose accessibility overlays, for one simple reason:
If it’s so amazing, why isn’t it sold to people with disabilities as assistive technology?
CAPTCHA systems are tests that protect websites from automated threats by checking whether the visitor is a human or a bot. However, these systems can create barriers for people with visual, auditory, or cognitive impairments, making some CAPTCHAs challenging to navigate.Despite the possible accessibility issues, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) permit the use of CAPTCHAs, but only if they add certain accessible features. This ensures that security measures do not exclude users with disabilities.In this article, you’ll learn all about implementing CAPTCHA systems that are as accessible as possible. However, it’s important to remember that no matter how accessible or transparent your CAPTCHA is, it will never be perfect – valid interactions will still be marked as unwanted and bots will still be able to pierce your site’s defences.For that reason, we’ll also introduce alternative solutions that offer greater security and inclusivity, adhering to the highest standards of web accessibility to improve the experience for all users.

In brief: there is wide support for three different types of ‘zoom’ – available both to site visitors and (to some extent) CSS authors:
- Page zoom is the default with a handy keyboard shortcut, and roughly matches behavior of the CSS zoom property.
- Scale factor (or ‘pinch zoom’) was introduced by early versions of mobile Safari, and may only be available through trackpad or touch interfaces – roughly matching the behavior of the CSS scale transform.
- Text-only zoom is also provided by Firefox and Safari. While not directly available in CSS, the behavior is similar to changing default font size on a site that uses entirely relative text sizing with rem units.
