Well, I’m sure the blind readers of HN (which I am certain exist) can answer this question, and you, a sighted person, don’t need to even wonder from your position of unknowing.

I mean, I explicitly used "wonder" because I don't wanna assume about blind people's experiences and needs. What else should I have done so you wouldn't come in kicking me in the nuts?

In this thread there's a bunch of "non-evil" responses, and your replies are all "I'm skeptical" or just dismissing them outright.

It appears from the outside that you've decided this is Officially Bad technology and aren't genuinely seeking evidence otherwise.

You're assuming worse of me than I'm assuming of the technology.

There's almost no reply here with a use that is a) not somewhat bad and b) has enough of an upside to compensate the downsides.

Except maybe this one, but I do know enough about accessibility to know how blind people generally use computers, which is why I asked the question.
