We, the undersigned, ask Google Inc. to "do no evil" and follow their mission statement to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful" by promptly adding accessibility to their visual word verification scheme so that the blind and visually impaired are allowed to fully participate in all products and services offered by the company on terms of equality with our sighted peers.

    • There is no way for a blind user to complete verification based on graphical displays, making services protected this way completely inaccessible. Please provide an alternate audio interface or a different method of verification.
