The case against overlays
Three reasons overlay widgets get sued.
Drawn from 2025 federal lawsuit data and public FTC filings. Overlays are the single largest recurring failure pattern in ADA web-accessibility litigation.
Overlays don't fix the underlying HTML.
An overlay widget injects a script into the page. It does not correct the semantic HTML, the ARIA attributes, the contrast ratios, or the keyboard traps that plaintiffs sue over.
22.6% of ADA lawsuits now target overlay users.
Plaintiffs' firms explicitly advertise that overlay-installed sites are their preferred target. The widget is a signal that a real audit was never performed.
The FTC fined accessiBe $1M for deceptive claims.
In 2025 the FTC issued a consent order over accessiBe's 'fully compliant' marketing. Buyers of overlay products inherited the reputational and legal exposure.
