Using Vercel, Ashlee found the Accessibility Firewall introduced *more* errors:

Curious, I checked.
When faced with the simplest error (a disclosure widget), its solution was to remove it — and site navigation for all mobile / narrow viewport users.
Cool.

[12/5] Accessibility Firewall ‘fixed’ one of the 133 issues axe DevTools identified on Vercel’s home page. By adding a useless `aria-label` to the logo link. Meanwhile, it introduced more WCAG issues, while also removing subnav, login, sign in, “Ask AI”, etc. Impressive.
