This is a conglomerate, post-Google Alphabet, series of companies
dedicated to accessibility as opposed to advertising, and run by
people with disabilities.
They could be named for the post-z characters from Dr Seuss's On
Beyond Zebra:
FLOOB, YUZZ, WUM, UM, HUMPF, FUDDLE, GLIKK, NUH, SNEE,
QUAN,
THNAD, ZATZ, JOGG, FLUNN, ITCH, YEKK, VROO, and Hi!
FLOOB might be an inclusive design initiative, YUZZ might focus on
peer-to-peer orientation and mobility, WUM might be peer-to-peer
assistive technology training, UM might be accessible media and
HUMPF might be research and development.
Unrelatedly, whole naming schemes, tools to help with naming or
exchange names... are okay.

Damn. I was about to post the same damned thing. |

Hmm, I got a bit grouchy about the difficulty of
getting a dot ne domain name. |

Even as a yungun I was ticked at Dr Seuss for not actually writing the word Yuzz, or Yuzzamatuzz, using the letter Yuzz. The letter was invented to use for the word Yuzzamatuzz but then he goes and writes it with a prosaic old Y. What? |

I deduced that it was a book for kids, and guess he thought using the new letters in words would make it hard to read for the kids. Certainly hard to read aloud. |
