cool and important project! methods-wise, *History in the age of abundance? : how the web is transforming historical research* by Ian Milligan and the classic work by Kirsten Foot, along with *The Archived Web: Doing History in the Digital Age*, by Brügger, might be helpful, if you haven't used those yet. Good luck, Will Mari On Fri, Feb 7, 2020 at 12:13 PM Peter Gloviczki <pgloviczki@coker.edu> wrote:
Friends,
On the history side, Hiltz & Turoff's Network Nation may be helpful, as might Communities in Cyberspace by Kollock & Smith.
Hope this helps, Peter

Hi Alexis,
I'm a researcher on digital ethnography and I also am the founder of TrollBusters, online protection for journalists. I think you are right to have concerns about your own identity as well as the effects of data compromise of the cloud platforms that might put your respondents at risk.
Have you thought about data storage and end-to-end encryption of the data to shore up vulnerabilities? Have you created redundant data collection receptacles to minimize tampering? Have you baked in GDPR restrictions and limited access to those who you may not be able to serve under GDPR guidelines?
Just some questions to ask as you move forward.
Sincerely, Michelle Ferrier

Hi AIR folks,
Long-time follower, first-time emailer! I'm a PhD candidate in Media Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder. I study the men's rights movement, using interviews, ethnography, archival research, and textual analysis. I'm currently looking at both pre-digital and digital materials, and trying to unpack how the movement "came online" around the 1990s. I'm reaching out to elicit some advice, recommendations, and help with a few challenges I'm encountering:
1. Can anyone recommend good sources on early Internet history, particularly with regards to gender? I'm especially interested in how and when "regular" people started to adopt Internet technologies. I've found some interesting evidence in print materials from the early 1990s that show men's rights activists transitioning to online spaces, but I'd like to historicize and contextualize what I'm seeing.
2. I'd like to start doing some "digital ethnography" via Twitter. My university's IRB liaison suggested I build a simple webpage where I can explain my research, have my consent form, etc. and link to it in my Twitter profile/tweets to meet IRB's standards for consent with human subjects. However, given the population I study, I'm concerned about personal safety, doxxing, harassment, etc. I don't want to be paranoid, but I also don't want to be naive about putting my personal information into the digital sphere via an easily-hackable webpage. Any advice or recommendations on digital security or how to go about digital ethnography with "difficult" populations be most appreciated.
Thanks and best regards, Lexi de Coning _______________________________________________ The Air-L@listserv.aoir.org<mailto:Air-L@listserv.aoir.org> mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers
