They always forget to be accessible. We can’t use 75% of the stuff coming out of the US because of the accessibility laws here. Even Microsoft isn’t compliant most of the time.

Sometimes the North-American centricity of the Valley is astounding. Sometimes, actually, you get them showing up here in Europe trying to sell stuff to us without even checking that they can deal with the local stuff: like multiple languages, date and currency formats, and (even) the local laws.

Annoying at best.
