Court rules website must be accessible to the blind

Jan, 15, 2023 Hi-network.com
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit decided that the protections afforded by the federalAmericans With Disabilities Act (ADA), applies to websites and mobile apps, in a new ruling. According to the court, limiting access online essentially prevents a customer's access to services at the company's physical locations. The decision went in favour of a visually impaired California resident Guillermo Robles who filed a lawsuit against Domino's in 2016, after his unsuccessful attempt to order pizza online. Robles had sought a declaration that Domino's was in violation of the ADA since their website or app was not designed to be compatible with the screen-reading software which he uses.
