I’m not usually one for more regulation, but I think this is a good thing. As far as regulations go, this is one of the cheaper ones, or at least it will be when developers are properly trained in accessibility and every serious CMS supports accessibility out of the box.
- Mirioron 7y agoProperly trained in accessibility is basically impossible. Freelancers are not going to be trained in it nor are people from all across the world.
- weberc2 7y agoOne of two scenarios will happen depending on how easy it is to retrofit an existing website for accessibility. If it is easy, some subset of developers will specialize in retrofitting. If it is not easy, all developers who want to compete for contracts that require ADA accessibility will have to do so. If some freelancers here or internationally refuse to learn for whatever reason, then they will not be eligible for those contracts, plain and simple.
