On MacOS we seem to have an unexpected high amount of screen reader users as discovered by @devinvalenciano

@deepak1556 found the corresponding Chromium issue which is not part of our Electron https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1143047

Even though the issue does not mention false positives, we should take it and hope that this will make the detection on macOS more precise.

@devinvalenciano has confirmed that most of the accessibility users detected on macOS are on Monterey and BigSur. Thus they could be affected by this bug.

This bug has been fixed in the latest release of VS Code Insiders!
