The "Streisand effect" is a term used to refer to cases where trying to hide something actually makes it more visible. It is named after American actress Barbra Streisand, who, with a court order, attempted to stop the media from publishing a photograph of her house. The press attention from this court order led to more people seeing and sharing the photograph.
