Unfortunately, the ADA does not cover colorblindness, even though provisions to accommodate those who are colorblind are very inexpensive, and the genetic condition is very common.
WCAG 2.0 specifically prohibits color being the only indicator of information. Companies with competent legal counsel won’t cherrypick WCAG guidelines - instead they’ll seek certification. So this ruling means things are likely to improve for colorblind folks as well.
Which doesn’t help when things produced for print are simply put online in pdf form without concern for their incompatibility with WCAG. For example, NYC’s flood zone maps. Not that flood zone information is important or anything.
Totally. More work to do here for sure.
