About

Karl Racine is the former attorney general of the District of Columbia. He was sworn in as the District of Columbia’s first elected Attorney General in 2015 and was reelected to a second term in 2018, where he served until January 2, 2023. As Attorney General, Karl was front-and-center on emerging issues that intersect with artificial intelligence, big data, privacy and competition law. He has been a national leader in holding big tech companies accountable and fighting for the privacy rights of consumers. Lawsuits he pioneered as Attorney General have been credited with bringing issues–such as geolocation tracking and inadequate data protection–into the national spotlight and are being replicated by bipartisan attorneys general across the country. Outside of litigation, Karl has been a vocal advocate calling on tech companies to be responsible content moderators. After the January 6th insurrection, Karl’s advocacy prompted Facebook to take down targeted ads of military tactical gear and weapons accessories until after the inauguration.
