Biography
Dr. Olivia Snow (she/her) is a writer, dominatrix, and research fellow at UCLA’s Center for Critical Internet Inquiry (C2i2), where she studies sex work/ers, labor rights, tech, and policy. Her work arises from her doctoral research on the dehumanization of the laboring body under industrial capitalism, her organizing for policies to support community safety and harm reduction, and her lived experience of financial deplatforming and algorithmic surveillance as a sex worker. A professional dominatrix trained in the humanities, she also analyzes the symbiotic relationship between popular imaginings of sex work/ers and the legislation that criminalizes our labor. Always with the goal of decriminalization and liberation, Snow’s research currently centers around the surveillance of in-person sex workers by Big Tech and the violence of financial and social deplatforming. She holds a PhD in American literature, and prior to joining C2i2, she was a research fellow at New York University’s AI Now Institute.
