Accessibility and a society of control
A good argument but not likely without legislation ...
"I'll try to explain my personal opinion as to why I believe that there should not be laws governing web accessibility and that such laws hinder the cause of wider web accessibility rather than help it.
I suppose that I should start by stating what I do believe to be important. I believe that web accessibility is not only desirable, but vital. I believe that all organisations, whether in the public or private sectors, have an obligation to provide web content in a manner which ensures the widest possible access for all people.
My argument is not that web accessibility is unimportant, but that achieving more widespead acccessibility is better served by not making this a subject for legality. My argument also delves a little into socio-political theory, so if you're bored already, my apologies." continued ... (Via And all that Malarkey)
