MMF set GARI up so manufacturers could enter their own product info, rather than have it curated. What's the Latin for 'let the reader about buying beware'? But having info broken down by product features seems like a good idea.

I think OCAD did a study of GARI, for the FCC (which uses GARI as one of its aggregated info resources)?

Anyone know anything about the Mobile Manufacturers Forum or their project the Global Accessibility Reporting Initiative (GARI). Seems like it's not for profit but it's also founded by a bunch of tech companies according to the MMF Wikipedia page<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Manufacturers_Forum>. Just wondering how impartial it is.
Thanks,
Julia
