Libraries that don't carry braille copies of every book? It is unfortunate that these people can't use these products, but I don't know, maybe I'm jaded with the US justice system

Libraries and books pre-date most nations' laws on accessibily, and therefore have a lot of wriggle room for not being able to comply in all cases.

The web does not predate most nations' acessibility laws.

Any website created that breaks those laws must have been done so deliberately or in ignorance.

If it was deliberate discrimination, then I hope the prison sentences are long.

If out of ignorance, then time to remediate rather than complain about the right to ignorance.
