As I said before yes. the guidelines are incorporated into legal requirements in many countries. My swift google of MR. Korne reveals he is rather strong in the creation of tools...worked on outspoken, with some Linux structures as well. He may be surprised to learn himself of the problems.

The W3C guidelines, are they just that? Or have they been adopted and agreed upon? Is there any legal teeth in then?

 Honestly that depends on Mr. Korn's personal background.
 Sometimes  management  leads with their  own experience of a disability,
 instead  of recognizing  that  inclusion refers to the floor not the
 person using  the floor.
 One does not find a different  Walmart for those arriving  in a van
 then say those on a skateboard, so one should not have a different
 amazon for those   who prefer less clutter when they shop.
 Sometimes, as with say paypal, the person listed as being in  charge of
 accessibility seemingly gets paid to pretend a disability with a  demo.
 I have an email from an amazon supervisor stating that the company takes
 inclusion  seriously.  given it is far easier for them to be sued  in
 some countries where they do business over access than stateside, I
 intend believing they sincere until I learn otherwise.
 applying a generalized expectation sometimes leads to poor results or so
 I personally feel.
