The success of amateur creators is inextricably tied to platform algorithms and policies. YouTube’s recommendation engine, TikTok’s "For You" page, and Patreon’s subscription model dictate visibility and revenue. However, this dependence creates precarity. A single policy change (e.g., demonetization of certain keywords) or algorithm shift can devastate a creator’s income. Using Mary Haze Pack as a hypothetical, the paper examines how amateur entertainers must constantly adapt to platform governance, often engaging in "algorithmic self-censorship" to remain viable.
The case of Mary Haze Pack illuminates the broader transformation of entertainment media.
