"An accurate definition of an internet “creator” would have to be: someone whose income is determined by a platform’s algorithms.
seems not quite right ...
- the internet has many platforms - and a creator could be using many of them - all with different algos
- what if there are no algos?
why not something like
an internet “creator” would have to be someone whose income is sourced primarily through 'harnessing the power' the internet.
and yes that might include say people who self publish on Amazon - but does not include people who publish through 'legacy publishers' ...
and then it might not include (say) 'The Information' - but probably should include 'Ben Thompson' - so something about 'individuals' not organisations ...
and then there is someone like even Daniel and Manton - should they be included?
PS
Not sure why it matters - maybe a separate discussion.
