Becoming the Product, 2025
Becoming the Product: The Critical Internet Researcher as a Virtual Intellectual examines the evolution of critical Internet research by analyzing the practices of early net critic Geert Lovink and the influencer-style approach of internet critic Joshua Citarella. With these examples, this thesis explores internet researchers’ diverse strategies to disseminate their work and sustain themselves economically within the constraints of the attention and influencer economy. In particular, it examines how subscription-based platforms and engagement-driven metrics shape the role of virtual intellectuals navigating the tension between critique and commodification. In this landscape, the boundaries between intellectual rigor, aesthetic branding, and market-driven content blur, raising critical questions about the implications and the future of critical internet research organizations.
