Me

He was the nicest guy and a years-long pedestrian and accessibility advocate. If anything his work is undersold in this article. The way he died was so unfair and sick.

That was basically the pitch of I-732 in 2016, and it drew a ton of industry opposition and failed too.
I donβt think we can discount the power of fossil fuel money in this. It killed I-732, it killed I-1631 in 2018, and it has a good chance of helping I-2117 in 2024 if we arenβt careful.

Whatever reach you may have had there is likely diminished now anyway. The algorithm is such a mess and itβs such a cesspool of bad content.
An org Iβm part of recently tweeted about leaving too, and it got one reply about cryptocurrency airdrops.
