      Issue Summary

      The embed widget does not set
      1aria-hidden="true"
      on the iframe when it is not visible, causing screen readers to navigate into it and cause confusion.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Configure the status embed inside of a web page
      2. Visit the page, and dismiss the status embed (or visit when no active incident is occurring)
      3. Use a screen reader (such as Safari VoiceOver)

      Expected Results

      The status embed is not read, as it is not visible

      Actual Results

      Status embed is read

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
