It probably made the DoJ ADA enforcement newsletter, which tracks such
things, and included - as of last May - exactly one case involving a
web site. The DoJ's conclusion is the one that I quote, which is that
there is *still* no firm decision as to whether or not the ADA applies
to commercial web sites.

If you have real evidence, I'd very much like to see it. If all you
have is the opinion you've been repeating, I'll continue taking the
DoJ's over yours.
