Hi Leonie, The UK's book repository for disabled students, now 'Book Share' run by the Royal Nat. Instute of Blind people and Dyslexia Action: http://www.load2learn.org may be able to help. (Alison Long Cc'd in for contact). Perhaps no specific court cases, but possibly steps required with and for publishers to avoid infringements (with implications partially answering your question?). Extra best, Howard (Leicester) -----Original Message----- From: Léonie Watson [mailto:tink@tink.uk] Sent: 20 May 2016 09:38 To: 'w3c WAI List' <w3c-wai-ig@w3.org> Subject: Disabled people and copyright infringement Hello WAI IG, I'm looking for examples of law suits and/or court cases, where people with disabilities have been sued/prosecuted for copyright or other copy protection infringement (anywhere in the world) because they were trying to access content that would otherwise be inaccessible to them. Rudimentary online searches have turned up nothing useful, so I'm hoping that someone/some people on this list will be able to point me in the right direction! Thanks. Léonie. -- @LeonieWatson tink.uk Carpe diem
