Funnily enough I had completely forgotten the history of this term:

The Streisand effect is a digital age term, coined after entertainer Barbara Streisand tried to suppress publication of a photo of her Malibu home in 2003. At the time, the picture had only been downloaded six times, including twice by her own lawyers. Public awareness of the case showed the photo had been viewed 420,000 times by the following month.
