Closed Captioning LawsuitsNational Association of the Deaf (NAD), et al. v NetflixWhat constitutes a place of public accommodation?How did the NAD originally bring Netflix under the ADA?Settlement & implicationsNAD vs. Harvard & MITCurrent state of the caseImplications for higher educationChanging scope of the ADA
live tweet: #a11y @3playmedia
February of 2015Failing to provide captions or providing unintelligible captions (YouTube auto captions)Accuracy is brought into playDifference: Netflix was a commercial entity, these videos were free (MOOCs)Both Title III of the ADA and Section 504 and 508 (receive federal funding)This is a public accommodation; providing educational materials to advance your education and careerDepartment of Justice has come in to say that they agree with the Plaintiffs (NAD)Waiting for final rulingHuge implications for higher educationCase law is dictating requirements for higher education ADA was meant to grow and expand and to provide accommodations, not deny or limit them27
OCR/DOJ Stance on Digital AccessWhat have they said?Excluding businesses that sell services through the Internet from the ADA would run afoul of the purposes of the ADA. Judge Ponsor, NAD vs. NetflixThe United States respectfully submits this Statement of Interest to correct Harvards misapplication of the primary jurisdiction doctrine and its misunderstanding of the ADA and Section 504.3. DOJ, NAD vs. Harvard & MITThe denial of educational opportunities is precisely the type of discrimination that Congress sought to end. DOJ, Dudley vs. Miami UniversityAs schools, school districts, states, and territories turn to the internet [], they must make sure they are not inadvertently excluding people with disabilities from their online programs, services, and activities.
