The Tech Litigation Database is the first open-access resource compiling, exploring and exposing the growing number of global litigation efforts against automated systems. With it, we aim to raise awareness and provide transparency about the impact of new technologies on our society, informing and supporting the work of researchers, legal actors and civil society organisations.
More information on the AFAR Project is available here.
The Tech Litigation Database is a collection of judgements on contested uses of automated decision-making systems in the public sphere. The database includes judgements, decisions, and opinions from national and international courts and Data Protection Authorities. The collection embraces a broad range of technologies and areas which are listed below. Further categories will be identified and added as tech litigation develops.
From AI influencing asylum and migration decisions, to automated systems impacting criminal and welfare justice, the Tech Litigation Database sheds light on how powerful new tools are being legally contested worldwide.
The collection of judgements is always in progress and we invite new users to add new cases to the database or join our team. Discover how you can add to the expansion of this invaluable resource by reporting your case or becoming a national rapporteur.
