[GTALUG] Linux growth (was: Vaccination Receipts on Linux)

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi Stewart,
I suppose?  One might sue red hat  or Mozilla, depending on the situation 
in  question.
Still, the issue with ADA  complaints are the degree to which those filing 
them must decide if it is worth the time such complaints can take.  Unlike 
here in Ontario where a comparative Human Rights complaint might take a 
year  or two, one can spend a decade  or more in some cases Ada wise.
Speaking personally?  I would love to discover what constitutes Google's 
legal presence in  Ontario or Canada, and file a human rights complaint 
based on 
accessibility against them.
Karen
