Abstract

When there is an increase in media notoriety as a result of censorship, the "Streisand Effect" can occur. This article is a case study of the singer Zahara and the process by which they went about removing a concert poster. The primary goal is to track the impact of these events on social media. The findings demonstrate the impact of the controversy on social media, as measured by variables such as the number of followers or likes in publications published close to the date of the censorship announcement.
