That's seems a bit melodramatic.
Neilsen responds to similar charges in an interview
with Digital Web magazine at
http://www.digital-web.com/articles/jakob_nielsen/:
" I can hardly be authoritarian since I don't hold any authority. I don't
run any design projects and I can't fire anybody for making a Web site
too hard to use. All I can do is to report the findings from usability
research and recommend that companies follow the guidelines that have
resulted from these studies. I admit that I tend to be outspoken in
defending users' rights to simplicity, but I simply think that it's time
to stop being so accepting of difficult technology."
