10.3.2006 DRC Encourages Compaints
Britain's Disability Rights Commission (DRC) has is on the warpath. It has called for disabled internet users to file and actively peruse claims against owners of websites which are inaccessible in a new campaign. "It will be a part of our marketing to encourage people to ring us and complain," according to the DRC.
The DRC has also launched a new guide for web development which adds to the W3C guidelines. According to The Register, "Most notable is the guide's insistence that the automated testing most website owners do to ensure accessibility is inadequate. The DRC asserts that it is vital that disabled people are used to test a site."
