Abstract

Jerome Polin is a well-known Indonesian YouTuber and content creator who often combines comedy and science in his humorous and educational videos. He has successfully built a strong and likable online persona. Through a varied content strategy and constructive audience engagement, he appears to have effectively handled the challenges of context collapse. However, he must remain aware of the dangers posed by misinformation and the potentially harmful effects of participatory surveillance.

The findings suggest that Jerome Polin has cultivated a successful online presence but must continue to be cautious about the risks inherent in the digital landscape.
