Technoableism

A concept describing how technology is framed as a solution to disability in ways that reinforce ableist assumptions, treating disability primarily as a problem to be fixed rather than a form of human diversity. Coined in the context of disability studies and critical technology scholarship, technoableism manifests in narratives that "exceptionally" disabled people overcome their disabilities through technology, which normalizes the expectation that disabled people should use technology to conform to non-disabled standards rather than addressing systemic barriers.
