People living with disabilities use their phone to help them find and access services which they need. Paying bills, getting cash at the bank, etc all previously required physically queuing up.
Yes - not all modernization and tech "advancement" has improved people's lives. Postmodernism is a side effect of a capitalist system. Communication has become a commodity to be consumed.
Unfortunately we haven't yet created a Linux-like philosophy that applies to mobile phones. With Unix, you use files or file handles to interface between command line tools. You incorporate the tools together in scripts to create more complex applications. How that philosophy can be transformed into a mobile device? I'm not sure.
Tech needs creative people to build things that help others live better rather than screw their life up.
And the ability to find services that make things simpler isn’t just something that has affected disabled people but across the board it has been made easier
