This article argues that business and professional communication practitioners, instructors, and students, besides becoming better informed about the legal context of website accessibility, should also become more aware of the ethical considerations of creating digital communication products that are inherently accessible for people with disabilities. Through a detailed review of the most important legal cases in the United States and discussion of ethical considerations concerning website accessibility for the disabled, we provide possible entrance points that will help instructors bring ethical considerations into the discussion of website accessibility. We urge instructors to regularly include disability in discussions of accessibility cases.

网站可访问性的法律和道德影响

本文认为,商业和专业通信从业人员、讲师和学生除了更好地了解网站可访问性的法律背景外,还应该更加了解创建残疾人固有的无障碍数字通信产品的道德考虑。通过对美国最重要的法律案件的详细审查和有关残疾人网站可访问性的道德考虑的讨论,我们提供了可能的切入点,以帮助教师将道德考虑纳入网站可访问性的讨论中。我们敦促教师在无障碍案例的讨论中定期包括残疾。
