[NFBCS] Successfully Subscribed To Disney Plus

Thu Nov 14 16:28:03 UTC 2019

Sadly, it is only the reality because it is allowed to go on. So many sites on the Net are not accessible because nothing is done about it. We are a very small minority, so when there are like 10 million subscribers, we are the little fish. It won't change until we do change it. Accepting it is not changing it. I think taking action and reporting it is a step in the right direction, but if we continue to accept second-class citizenship, we will continue to be second-class citizens. I wasn't going to say anything, but my goodness! I had to.
