2005-01-05	The phrase "Streisand effect" is coined by Mike Masnick, on his blog Techdirt; Since When Is It Illegal To Just Mention A Trademark Online? by Mike Masnick (excerpt: How long is it going to take before lawyers realize that the simple act of trying to repress something they don't like online is likely to make it so that something that most people would never, ever see (like a photo of a urinal in some random beach resort) is now seen by many more people? Let's call it the Streisand Effect.) [128]

2006-07-13	Techdirt; Is Leveraging The Streisand Effect Illegal? by Mike Masnick (excerpt: A couple years ago, I jokingly coined the phrase "The Streisand Effect," to describe an increasingly common phenomenon. Someone would get upset about something they didn't like online and would have some lawyers send out a nasty cease-and-desist letter to get it taken offline. Such a plan would usually backfire, because getting the lawyers involved would end up drawing much more attention to whatever it was that the lawyers were trying to suppress.) [132]
