Legal Precedent Set for Web Accessibility

Advocates for the disabled won a major victory yesterday, when a federal judge in California ruled that the ADA applies to the Internet. Specifically, to Internet retailers. The National Federation of the Blind brought the suit against Target, whose online store has serious obstacles for disabled, particularly vision impaired, users. This is a major ruling on the ADA, and will have serious ramifications throughout the Web. But it's critical to making the enormous potential of the Web accessible to everyone.

Fighting for Net Neutrality and Internet Freedom

Net Neutrality Update: The Pounding Before the Recess

...from the political blog mydd.com

An awesome new site just launched, called WeAretheWeb.org The site is a collection of a group of internet celebrities (like the Tron Guy) talking about net neutrality.

Here's the deal. Ted Stevens wants his bill, and he's pushing like crazy to get it. It's going to be very hard for him to lobby Senators during the August recess, so he's looking to sign up 60 Senators who will commit to cloture during the lame duck session before the recess starts. In case you're wondering, that's unusual and somewhat sleazy.

The August recess starts Thursday, so we've got to put some heat on wavering Senators to make sure they don't commit to Stevens.
