Vox Media "journalist" Carlos Maza recently went on a woke crusade to deplatform comedian Steven Crowder from YouTube.
This in itself failed, but the side effect of this was YouTube updating its policies, which wound up affecting creators across the site. As of now, YouTubers and even journalists are finding their channels demonetized for "offensive content".
This incident is the first example of something louder, dumber, and more devastating than the Streisand Effect - The Maza Effect.
My channel was demonetized due to "offensive content"?
Goddammit, I got hit by the Maza Effect.

Derived from slashdot effect, an insane increase in traffic after a link to a news article is promoted to the digg.com front page. This is sort of like an unintentional DDOS attack, but sometimes the increased traffic (and ad exposure) causes webmasters and bloggers to post links to their sites on digg.
The digg effect will usually not have much of an effect on larger websites but small websites may be shut down quickly due to the server not being able to cope with the high amount of requests or because all of their bandwidth is consumed.
I wanted ad clicks so I submitted my copied blog post to digg. It got promoted and my website was shut down due to the digg effect.

Andy: Duhhh!!!, what was I saying?, I think I just got hit with The Chica Effect!!!

(Noun) Also known as pretty privilege. A well-documented phenomenon in which human perception of a person’s character/trustworthiness is impacted by that person’s physical attractiveness/beauty. Studies found that when two focus groups were each shown a photo of a different person (one beautiful, one not), and shown an identical list of crimes that person committed, the focus group (or “jury”) gave the beautiful person a lighter sentence.
“Wow, that cop was so nice to me! I was speeding by 20, and he let me off with a warning!”
“It’s probably because you’re pretty.”
“Haha! I guess the halo effect really works”

The effect of a woman being eternally adored by a man because she is an ideal woman, rather than a perfect beauty. This term was coined in honor of Camilla Parker-Bowles, who has kept Prince Charles completely captivated for 40 years.
My friend Andrew just emailed me a pic of a woman he knew in college whom he claimed looked like a model back then and is just as hot as she was 30 years ago. All I saw was a middle-aged woman with a sensible haircut, dark glasses and wrinkles. Must be The Camilla Effect.
