[Air-L] Ethics in studying reddit postings

[Glass, Grace]

Hello all-

I'm designing a study of the self-improvement discourse on reddit, and how it's mediated by gender. User Posts will be central to the study, but I wanted to get your thoughts on how to handle the ethical piece. Conventional informed consent would not be possible due to the anonymity of the usernames/platform. Thoughts?
