UCL Massively Crossreferenced Digital Laws Varying digital legal instruments across jurisdictions, each able to be clicked on a section/article/paragraph basis to find the hard and soft law instruments that cite and interpret each specific part (or substantively very similar parts of previous/neighbouring laws.) Snippets provided for each citing source along with original links to that source. Typically thousands of citations for each. Citing documents can be ordered by date, citation numbers, or 'authority/influence' (PageRank algorithm). Database of citing documents maintained and updated daily/weekly; the below documents intended to be updated weekly. Last update 3 August 2026. Document coverage and national grammar for document detection is strongest and best tested for UK, Ireland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, EU and ECHR, but the database contains and attempts to link administrative decisions and guidance from other jurisdictions. Unlike Westlaw or other providers, this is not only free, with links to the originals, and incorporates a large amount of guidance and secondary material. Documents generated from a dataset held and maintained by Michael Veale, Professor of Technology Law and Policy, Faculty of Laws, University College London. If you wish to study these instruments and the tech and practices that interact with them, consider learning about it at UCL Laws: on our LLM in Law and Technology, or our week-long executive education on AI for Lawyers: Technological Understanding for Compliance and Litigation.
