The one thing I expect a lot of people might try to hang their hats on,
to say they don't have to build their sites to accessibility standards,
is this one line near the very end (page 24) of the opinion cited on
Caselaw by Jim Thatcher:

" Furthermore, even the purely legal question of the application of
Title III to
Internet web sites is far from "beyond any doubt." "

Granted, that's out of context, but that's how some people will probably
prefer to use it.
