      I have completely forgotten about what exactly Streisand was trying to hide. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen the actual media she was embarrassed about.

          I find it hilarious that I know what her house looks like but don’t know a single one of her songs. Given that she wanted to hide the former and as an artist, probably wanted everyone to be exposed to the latter.

            I grew up listening to her music because my parents liked it.

            Now I also know that on a personal level she’s probably a whiny little bitch

            This may be generational. There is not likely to be much intersection between the group of people who listened to Streisand and those who listen to Swift.

          Anytime i see a link to that article, i like to click over and take another look at that house. I like to think of it as doing my part keeping the Streisand effect strong.

          Two years later, Masnick coined the name when writing about Marco Beach Ocean Resort’s takedown notice to urinal.net (a site dedicated to photographs of urinals) over its use of the resort’s name.

          I guess that exists

          If the picture were cropped to be just her house, it’s not even a particularly high resolution.

            Keep in mind this was 2003 when it was absolutely not the norm to be able to see the aerial view of any given celebrity’s house, which also tells a lot about layout and entry points.
