I think this is actually one of the reasons that authors, who are sympathetic to, say, blindness, don't consider this area. There seems to be a lot of obfuscation and euphemism, probably because there is much more stigma in this area than in, say, deafness. (The other main problem seems to be an assumption that web sites exist to provide free entertainment when major sites actually exist to communicate information, to sell things, or to propagate religious or political beliefs - even many information sites are subsidised by selling banner advertising space. Personally, I would be worried about selling and propaganda sites targetting these groups, and you can only communicate information to those who understand it, although you may be able to pitch it at different levels, probably with different sub-sites.)
