DOJ cracks the whip on accessibility of US public websites

Contented

In the US, the dream is over for commercial firms: now most public websites must comply with web accessibility guidelines. How strange. Once upon a time we thought that WCAG 2.0 and Section 508 applied solely to government agencies and government-funded agencies.
