Mailing lists, things that get delivered to my inbox are pretty easily accessible.
I just looked at the Defcon online forum pages and, at least at the very introductory level, those look pretty accessible. Traditionally, ubergeek formats are very accessible, since they have much of the same concerns accessibility and usability do: it's really just crap social media that fails to respect the UX basics that everyone has known about for the past twenty years.
I don't think much has changed since the original edition of _Don't Make Me Thin_.
I've spent the past week taking a cybersecurity course on EdX, and it's also really raised a lot of questions for me concerning social media's blase attitude toward UX and privacy.
I spent this morning attempting to delete a lot of my person info from Google and Gmail, and it is almost impossible: the entire interface is so complex, you basically have to be a software developer to understand it, and it just goes on and on for pages and pages. Have you read about Google's use of "cohorts" and the rest of their new system for tracking users? Really insidious.
