The President of the Spanish Government mentioned journalist Jiménez in Congress, in a debate on disinformation.

The Streisand effect algorithm: when censorship boosts the signal 📈
In technology, the Streisand effect acts like an unwanted algorithm. An attempt to suppress information becomes the event that spreads it. Social media systems are designed to prioritize content with high interaction, without discriminating its origin. A critical mention from an institution generates a spike in mentions and searches that algorithms interpret as relevance, automatically recommending that content to more users and amplifying the original message.
Instruction manual for making your critic famous 📖
For those who wish a minority space to gain audience, the procedure is clear. First, identify the communicator from the highest possible platform. Second, grant him the role of victim of a distant power. Third, get his followers to mobilize with a common purpose. The result is guaranteed: prime time visibility and the collective sensation of discovering something they don't want you to see. An infallible plan, even if it's not the official one.
