Re: Color contrast (Minimum)

The color code for it is #CC0000 which clear indicates the contrast ratio
is 3.6 : 1. My question is if a person only see black and white which is
the applied effect then does the text considered to be a failure or we can
say it pass. Or may be I overthink the issue here.
