Re: Same link label for different products

If the target of the link is same, in this case opens the same modal, I
believe having same label to links is fine. Associating the label of link
with the product label is an advantage.
Is it a violation as per WCAG? I don't so as 2.4.4 talks about the link
purpose in context. For Level AAA 2.4.9 Link purpose (link only) it will be
failed.
