Good point. If you look at the Title 3 cases further down that page you'll see that they do have a relatively broad interpretation of "open to the public", e.g. an online test-prep provider and an online grocery-delivery site. It isn't really clear to me who's included under that category, but it's certainly a significant proportion of popular websites.

Would it apply to a personal website run by a human with no profit motive if it's "open to the public"? That would be very nasty.

I'm all for accessibility and all my sites can be easily read by screen readers and nvaigated by the blind/etc. But if this law means violent force can be used against me if I make a website that is not accessible it would be terrrible.

Is your personal website a business?
