Analysis of her 2022-2025 publications reveals three dominant trajectories: (1) deconstruction of 'safety' narratives in Big Tech feminism, (2) forensic examination of democratic deficits in platform governance, and (3) development of counter-surveillance methodologies for sexual privacy violations. These works consistently challenge technocratic solutions while centering marginalized experiences in digital policy design.
