The new web browser increases accessibility of the internet for people with autism and other sensory issues.
UAE-based technology group operator e&, in partnership with communications and advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi ME, has launched a mobile version of its Wider Web Extension which is tailored towards individuals with autism.
