[thelist] Does the Americans with Disabilities, ADA, act pertain to Internet Content?

[Brian W King]

I think that we will probably see Southwest settle out of court too.  No one
seems to want to be the guinea pig on this one.  Knee jerk says that if the
companies are settling out of court, that they know they are on shaky ground
at best.

Which is what this is about:

Test cases are necessary, and they have to go to a verdict
before you get precedent.

I, for one, am rather hoping that this scores.  The spirit
of the law in this case is clear.  The letter supports
that interpretation when/if a court cements a precedent.
