Our People » Cori Crider
Cori Crider is a Senior Fellow at Open Markets and the Future of Tech Institute, where she examines ways to reshape digital markets for people and planet.
Previously, Cori co-founded Foxglove, a legal non-profit committed to justice in technology. In just five years Foxglove won the UK’s first legal challenges to biased government algorithms in border control and student grading. Other landmark cases enforced the rights of Facebook and Amazon workers, challenged social media’s role in fuelling violence, and defended public value and patient autonomy in the use of health data.
Her work has been featured in the Guardian, the Times, the Financial Times, the Wall Street Journal, Politico, Wired, and Fast Company, as well as in Madhumita Murgia’s Code Dependent. She has advised on digital policy for Amnesty International and Access Now.
Cori’s earliest work was in national security. She spent twelve years at Reprieve, where she led an international team of lawyers and advocates representing drone strike survivors and Guantánamo detainees. In 2019, she presented The World According to AI, a documentary for Al Jazeera English. Cori holds a B.A. from the University of Texas and a J.D. from Harvard Law School.
