- Abstract
Background This article is based on a panel discussion at McMaster University in 2019. Analysis Five questions are posed: 1) What is pressing about research on platforms and power right now? 2) What is the most powerful example of a research design that could disrupt or transform platform power? 3) Can platforms and algorithms be liberating? 4) How can researchers and policymakers work together for change? 5) What regulatory futures should researchers attend to, and how can research contribute to platform regulation? Conclusions and implications Panel participants provide insights into the questions posed.
