That's where you're wrong, kiddo. There's laws now.
- diminoten 8y agoNo there aren't, none relevant to this conversation at least.
- hluska 8y agoCheck out the Americans with Disabilities Act.
- pc86 8y agoADA applies to companies with 15 or more employees. Nobody is under any obligation to make their blog ADA compliant.
- hluska 8y agoI think we're talking about different comments. I'm certainly not talking about a blog. Instead, I was referring to the parent's application. The parent wrote: Circumvented browser features to force autoplay on videos with high volume on our websites. While not a morally bankrupt thing to do especially compared to some of the other examples, we all felt dirty doing it. There's no information about the size of the company there. I replied to a comment that said there are no relevant laws and suggested that that person check out the ADA. The ADA might be relevant.
- pc86 8y agoThe ADA isn't relevant with respect to auto-playing videos, but is it relevant with respect to forcing a volume increase? I think that's a hard sell.
- pc86 8y agoInsultingly diminutive language aside, you're just wrong. Assuming you're referring to the ADA, "there's [been] laws now" since the 90s. The line you quoted is clearly referencing personal websites, which are not bound by ADA.
