Critical reception
Benjamin Groff of We Are The Guard wrote that the song "is a mockery of Taylor Swift Illuminati conspiracy theories, as well as bleaker, sadder realities - the isolation, depression, and searching common to so many of us."[1] Jake Visnawath of Paper wrote that "Poppy seems to own her possessive powers for the first time in the track."[2] Golden Boy Press wrote that the character of Poppy "doesn't disappear even when she sings, she keeps it going in a way that's new, fresh, and interesting."[3]
Music video
The music video for "Interweb" was released on July 21, 2017. The visual piece features the singer under dark technicolor red and blue lights as two figures dance in the background.[4] Paper magazine wrote that the video's dancers "practically perform hypnosis over the Web."[2] Jordan Miller of Breathe Heavy called the video "beautifully bizarre."[4]
Live performances
Poppy made her late night debut[5] on The Late Late Show with James Corden on August 2, 2017, where she performed the single.[6][7] The song was also performed on the Poppy.Computer Tour.
