A recent ruling by the Ninth Circuit Court was brought to my attention today, where Domino’s Pizza had a court case reversed that suggested that any place providing public accommodation<\/a> is required to provide the same level of accessibility online that it is required to provide offline.<\/p>\n

Essentially, the court indicated that the space of “public accommodation” extended beyond the physical and into the digital. In the words of the opinion summary:<\/p>\n

\n

“Even though customers primarily accessed the website and app away from Domino\u2019s physical restaurants, the panel stated that the ADA applies to the services of<\/em><\/strong> a public accommodation, not services in <\/em><\/strong>a place of public accommodation. The panel stated that the website and app connected customers to the goods and services of Domino\u2019s physical restaurants.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This builds on the ruling in Nat\u2019l Fed\u2019n of the Blind v. Target Corp.<\/em>, which originally set out the “services of” vs. “services in” language that is here amplified.<\/p>\n

What’s this mean?<\/p>\n

Well, it means that the things put out into the public sphere digitally need to be as accessible as things provided in the physical sphere: just as you must build ramps to accommodate wheelchairs, you must make your digital content screen reader accessible.<\/p>\n

Religious organizations and churches are exempt from the Public Accommodation rules of the Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S. Code \u00a7 12187), but encouraged to follow them.<\/p>\n

And certainly, the ADA is emphatically a civil rights law. What this means is that a violation of the ADA is a civil rights violation. It is just as important.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
