[blindlaw] job discrimination

[James Pepper]

So you are saying that ticketmaster is categorizing all the blind into one
class and designating seats based on their ability to use their website,
instead of allowing them to choose where they want to sit.   Ticketmaster is
assuming that we cannot choose where we want to sit?  I think you guys
should look into this type of profiling based on their website.  Thats a
decision they made by coding that into the website, to profile the blind.
