Apple Sued For Discriminating Against The Disabled

Apple is being sued for allegedly ignoring ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) guidelines by not making its stores accessible to customers with disabilities. If the allegations against the company are true, Apple should be ashamed of themselves. Thank my Mom for the linkage.

Filed this past Friday in a Northern District of California court, the 17-page suit claims that Apple has simultaneously violated both the federal Americans With Disabilities Act as well as the California Health and Safety Code by failing to provide "full and equal" access at its San Francisco flagship shop on One Stockton Street.
