I guess I'm going to argue minor differences here but I thought the Streisand Effect was more about someone trying to hide a thing via lawsuit or something and that usually involves some effort to actually remove the thing from the internet or visibility.

I don't think Facebook cares if ZH has a website or people can visit. They just don't let that content on their platform.

To me that's different than the Streisand Effect. ZH i'm sure would like similar results no doubt as far as attention goes.
