The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information.

Yez 🤡
Someone is racing Elon in an "any % speed run to completely destroy an established companies credibility."
Elom should buy CrowdStrike, rename it clownstrike, send the DMCA, and then run it into the ground like Twitter.
Yes and no here. Businesses by and large won't stop using them because of this. And if they succeed, it's a deterrent for others.
We must agree that :
1-they did want to sensor information
2-but the information was made more public.
Now, are you saying that (1) was indeed their intention but also that (2) was intentional. That being quite rich, they will continue to send DMCAs to intimidate anyone. Finally, their main goal wouldn't only be to deter this one action but also similar actions by others, which would be more effective if the DMCA succeeds.
... i must agree with you here if this is what you meant.
