Note that the law was not really settled here. The case was not dismissed, but it was not judged either. It also did not set off a wave of suits, but it was a shot over the bow that if you have a site, and it's not accessible, you could be sued and the court will not necessarily dismiss your case. If you're Target, it could cost you $6,000,000 and the costs of retooling your site.
