Adrian Roselli, pH0Yes, I will update my #accessiBe #overlays post about the Sherwin complaint. But not until later — meetings RN.
If a proper attorney (not a bird lawyer) shares anything, read that. It will be better than mine.

Nic@aardrian Interesting indeed. I was surprised to find the remediation cost of only $3500, but I took a peek at the website and would say it still has some obvious issues with contrast that neither accessibe nor this other party managed to fix?
@NicMakesStuff I did not look at the site. Yeah, $3,500 to fix suggests rather straightforward issues to remediate and a platform that is likely not too complex. If you see contrast issues then perhaps they were missed or the colors were changed since the remediation.
Hope@aardrian Really? They make interesting reading! Or at least for me. I guess that's because I'm ordinarily a case unwinder.
@aardrian I mean I follow cases.
@aardrian OK I'm gunna do it now hah. Recreate my PACER account, that is. It's in my old name and I've lost access.
@aardrian Oh hey I'm reading your post and I've been trying to find an Ubo filter for overlays. I asked on the subreddit, but they were like you have to give us an URL. I did give them one, I happenn to find one earlier that day, but they said they couldn't find it hah. Yay there's one out there!! I do have the extension installed in Chrome, of course, but I've switched to Firefox.
@ladyhope uBlock Origin? I don’t use it but the URLs listed here might help:

While that links to a Chrome plug-in, it could still be useful.
