5 Findings
1. The answer to my question was a resounding no.
2. Not only is the digital divide not growing smaller, chances are that it was growing bigger.
3. New digital communication technology is not designed with handicapped users in mind. As such any time something new comes out, it actually widens the divide as handicapped users probably wouldn't be able to use it.
4. The government does not care. There have been numerous laws enacted to help give handicapped internet users gain equal footing to the non-handicapped users, but the government itself doesn't bother to follow them. A study found that 90% of government federal home pages did not follow the guidelines provided by the government.
5. 75% of disabled people are un-employed, and only 5% to go college.
