How do you think they’re [VoIP providers] going to get to customers?
Through a broadband pipe. Cable companies have them. We have them. Now what
they would like to do is use my pipes free, but I ain’t going to let them do
that because we have spent this capital and we have to have a return on it.
So there’s going to have to be some mechanism for these people who use these
pipes to pay for the portion they’re using. Why should they be allowed to
use my pipes?”

for those of you who think that this lawsuit is “BS” or “Crap” are very short sighted… there were people who fought against wheelchair accessiblity in public places as well… Civil Rights apply to everyone… not just the ones with 20/20 vision and show can run the 40 in less than 5 seconds. Plus, as a business person, one would think that there is a demographic out there that would be more than willing to shop at your 508 compliant web site, so they dont have to roll their blind arses down to the closest Target store. :)

You can think it is total BS but the truth is the U.S. is way behind the rest of the world on this. Changing their (Target’s) site is NOT that difficult. Any good designer today understands accessibility. For those who think this is total BS I hope you never go blind and try navigate the web in the U.S.

What?! When do I get to sue Target for having a website that downlaods slowly on a 56k connection?

I sense that the court has taken the appropriate steps in this direction.

Navigating the “entire internet” is possible with scriptreading software, one of which is called “Jaws.” Singlemalt might wanna lay off the liquor before inserting foot. Besides, the laws only give “equal access,” not exclusive or superior access. And even primates cannot get termites out of hills to eat with their bare appendages, they use “tools” like sticks and twigs to dig them out. SO sometimes individuals just need assistance which can take many different forms. But nobody likes a TOOL.

This is the reason designing with Web standards is so incredibly important. We’re not far away from a legal mandate that all company sites must be designed for accessibility. There are indeed great technologies available to make the Web available to those with different abilities and there is no better way to say that your brand cares than to design your sites with that in mind.
