DJ, I am no upset, your reply is stuck in self validation, turn your narrative to helping the community.

I am also not upset but please explain how my reply is stuck in self validation?

You own this topic, NO ONE here owns this topic like you do.

I am not trying to own any topic, I have much to learn on all topics including ADA compliance, and page speed, along with web design, coding, and even working on cars, something I do on the side. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't learn something new and one way, as a matter of fact the least expensive way of learning is when someone points out how I am wrong.

The problem is you have predatory attorneys who look for companies to sue, defending a lawsuit can cost millions, so they send a letter that says give me $5,000.00 and we will drop the suit, so you pay and a year latter they send the same letter again.

Web design companies leaving clients vulnerable to these predators and no one calls them out, sues them, or even talks about it.

And now your defending the companies leaving the dealerships vulnerable?

I don't want to sell to their customers, couldn't if I wanted to but they should fix their code!

Turn your narrative to actionable tips and tricks and use this community service to talk about your ADA toolset.

Your saying I am not allowed to point out things in a thread, I can only post tutorials that no dealership could use because they have zero control over their own sites?

ADA compliance, page speed, and clean code are nothing more than the base ... of course not having a good base can get you sued and you'll bleed customers like crazy and then you'll have to spend all your money on 3rd party sites ... like what is happening now

ADA compliance, page speed, clean code is boring ... I don't care about it but I am forced to talk about it because no one else is doing it, cares about it or talks about it and until everyone understands the risk no one is going to force web design companies to write code correctly.

Do you believe if someone is doing something that could hurt someone, should they be called out for it or it is better not to do or say anything and let the person and or company get hurt, sued, fined, or just waste their time and money and we should say nothing about it?

Whoa @DjSec - I think you are misreading Joe. He is trying to help you. Maybe reread what he is saying to you without any malice in his tone.

The rest of us are reading your tone as passionate to the point of insanity or someone who thinks he is being greatly attacked.

I can see how one could take a sentence from Joe as a slight attack, but the overall message certainly is not.

If you can change your tone, it would be great to get into the topics you’re trying to educate us on. As Joe is pointing out, you’re the expert on this.

All of the back and forth aside, just to throw my opinion out there: This will be solved by AI.

The compliance will still be a thing until laws changed and some guy in California will still keep suing dealers for not having screen reader compliance, but I have to assume that those who use these tools are going to move to new AI solutions that can read, manipulate, respond and interact with websites of any type at any time. Once you start using Claude Co-Work, OpenClaw or Perplexity Computer you really start to see the near future where the website becomes far less relevant.

Do I go to travel websites to book trips anymore? Nope.
Do I use the documentation site for my programming frameworks to figure out how they work? Nope.
Do I shop for electronics by going to Walmart, BestBuy, Amazon and ShopBot to compare prices? Nope.

Did I try shopping for a used car using AI? Yes. Did it work? Absolutely not.
