Website owners are being targeted and sued for a law they are ignorant of...
It is "The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990" which will ultimately require businesses to make accommodations for people with disabilities in ALL their web content.
On the ADA.gov website, a United States Department Of Justice Civil Rights Division website for information about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), there is an introduction to the ADA. Here is a direct quote from the first paragraph:
"The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law on July 26, 1990, by President George H.W. Bush. The ADA is one of America's most comprehensive pieces of civil rights legislation that prohibits discrimination and guarantees that people with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else to participate in the mainstream of American life -- to enjoy employment opportunities, to purchase goods and services, and to participate in State and local government programs and services. Modeled after the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin – and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 -- the ADA is an "equal opportunity" law for people with disabilities."
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a civil rights law, does not mention websites anywhere; however, Title III of the ADA has been interpreted by U.S. courts to apply to websites.
In a Wikipedia article regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, under the section titled Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, 2019, there is a paragraph referencing a Supreme Court decision in October 2019.
"In October, 2019, the Supreme Court declined to resolve a circuit split as to whether websites are covered by the ADA. The Court turned down an appeal from Domino's Pizza and let stand a U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling which held that the Americans With Disabilities Act protects access not just brick-and-mortar public accommodations, but also to the websites and apps of those businesses."
In October, 2019, David G. Savage, a staff writer for the Los Angeles Times Washington bureau, wrote an article titled, "Supreme Court allows blind people to sue retailers if their websites are not accessible"
Here are the first two paragraphs from that article:
"WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court cleared the way Monday for blind people to sue Domino’s Pizza and other retailers if their websites are not accessible.
In a potentially far-reaching move, the justices turned down an appeal from Domino’s and let stand a U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling holding that the Americans With Disabilities Act protects access not just to restaurants and stores but also to the websites and apps of those businesses."
