      This week, the 9th circuit court ruled that the Americans with Disabilities Act applies to websites & mobile applications. Next week, many software teams will add “Accessibility check” to the top of their backlogs😅https://www.lflegal.com/2019/01/dominos-ninth-circuit/ …

      Seriously, this is awesome. A website is a “place of public accommodation,” so just like a Domino’s restaurant, it must be accessible to people with disabilities.

      What about internal websites for employees?

      Seems like internal websites are not covered and it's a huge problem everywhere

          The ADA says that if you’re disabled and working, your employer has to provide “reasonable accommodations.” That means if the internal software isn’t accessible for your disability and you ask for a change and nothing happens, you can sue.

          Replying to @Gogglor_Smash @FloInNYC_ and

          Of course, that’s the theory. In practice employers often don’t hire disabled people in the first place to avoid having to accommodate them/because they have misconceptions of their competence, or they find other reasons to fire them when they ask for accommodations.

          What I've found is that internal websites are only made accessible after a disabled person is unable to use them. As a software engineer and disabled person, I push for disability to be part of the design process from the start

          Yep, that's what usually happens. "Frank's one of our top sellers and he had an accident and can't use a mouse well anymore. Time to hire someone to make our internal software keyboard accessible!"
