Compliance Watch — Not Legal Advice

AI Law Tracker 2026

This is a living index of AI-related policy changes we’re watching — built for founders, operators, and teams who need “what changed + what it means + what to do next” without legal theater.

Goal: reduce surprises
Method: link-first verification
Output: actions, not fear
Not legal advice. This is an operator’s tracker (what changed → what it impacts → next step). Verify with counsel for your situation.
Last updated: [set date]
Update cadence: weekly (or when urgent)

What this is (and what it isn’t)

This is
  • A curated watchlist of AI-related policy/legal movement.
  • Operator notes: impact + actions (no fluff, no fear-mongering).
  • Link-first entries so you can verify sources quickly.
This is not
  • Legal advice.
  • A complete list of every jurisdiction or rule.
  • A substitute for counsel when stakes are high.
Rule: if we can’t link to a primary source (or credible official summary), we don’t publish the entry.

How we verify (simple + strict)

1) Primary source

We prefer official text or an official regulator/government page.

2) Two-source check

If the primary is dense, we add a credible secondary summary (still linked).

3) Operator impact

We write what it likely impacts (data, disclosures, governance, procurement) and the next step.

Good default behavior: if you’re unsure, align to the iWasGonna™ Standard—consent, transparency, control, auditability, alignment. That keeps you out of trouble in most scenarios.

Tracker

Each item is a shell you can fill with verified info. Replace placeholders and add links as you confirm. No claims are made until verified.
