[blindlaw] LinkedIn Has Been Made Inaccessible To The Blind

[Tom Ladis]

Thank you.  This one seems like a problem since it is so often used in the 
job search and career networking arena.  I have quite a few friends on there 
and would like to keep that career networking tool available to everyone.

Should I submit a trouble ticket?

I use it and have also had the same problem.  See the next forwarded message
