The only place that Hubbard kind of discusses the backfiring PR effect as a kind of "successful" technique, is in the Mission Earth books, where the flawed PR man does that type of backfiring PR work. Never mentions Streisand Effect though, just backfiring PR man character comically portrayed in Mission Earth, forget his name. J Warbler Madman or similar.Did LRH ever talk about the Streisand effect? Didn't think so, therefore it isn't a real thing and Scientology's actions so far have all been correct. Keep doing what you're doing Scientology! You're winning, suppression will be shattered any day now.

If you remember Hubbard himself told the Granada productions interviewer, the famous Hubbard line when Hubbard was asked by interviewer:
Interviewer to Hubbard: "Do you ever consider yourself as quite mad?"
Hubbard answered: "Oh yes! The only man in the world who is a mad is one who doesn't admit to being a madman."
So per this reverse preemptive Hubbard logic, admitting to being the nut means he's not a nut.
That kind of is similar to doing this Steisand Effect backlashing stuff, just to gain ANY attention to his Scientology nuttiness, where if people come into Scientology from hearing how nutty Scientology and horrible Scientology is, then people will still come into Scientology to supposedly find out from Scientology what is "real" Scientology, etc, etc.
One of the routes onto the Bridge that isn't stated as one of the routes onto the Bridge, is the J. Warbler Madman Mission Earth backfiring PR route.
The Hubbard writings telling the Scientology PR trainees and staffs what to do, is outrageous proof how sabotaging Hubbard was to them all.Good stuff.
And here is some more "PR TECH" by Hubbard to counteract an "Enemy Line" such as Scientologists imagine Mike Rinder's book to be. I have bolded some parts to highlight the observable fact that the cult's default response to any whistleblower is always lying. Hubbard's "sacred scripture" carefully instructs Scientologists to "counter" any negativity ("entheta") with the biggest, boldest and most outrageous lies possible.
Hence when Rinder's ex-wife flies across the country with a mob of terrorist thugs and attacks him at a doctor's office, the "church" of Scientology broadly promotes the "Big Lie" that Mike is a wife beater who assaulted and battered his ex until she was permanently disfigured and disabled. And Scientologists do clay demos on these things and write huge success stories!

HCO POLICY LETTER OF 9 JUNE 19751
PR Series 27
THE ENEMY LINE
When there is a concerted short or long-term campaign going on against someone or something from a single or multiple source, there has been a black PR agreement as to what to say about that someone or something.Some worked-out and agreed-upon entheta is concocted.The enemy’s PRs, media outlets and front groups are given exact statements to make.There is a maxim in PR or advertising that A MESSAGE MUST BE REPEATED OVER AND OVER TO IMPINGE ON A GIVEN PUBLIC. This is found in advertising as “brand-name exposure.” In general PR work it is used to get a client’s name repeated over and over. Even in intelligence the same principle is used: they have the same report appear in several places at once. This convinces the opposition of its “truth.”An enemy group usually originates several carefully worked-out entheta statements. You can always trace these as being a planned campaign by someone because the same perverted statements appear at widely separated points.Example: Glutz Biscuits is monopolizing the market. The Weevil Biscuit Company PRs decide to attack Glutz Biscuits and get more of the market. At a meeting, Weevil’s PRs decide upon “Twelve Glutz Biscuit employees were hospitalized for rabies.” To make press on this they get Gussie Mug to get a job at Glutz, pop some soap in her mouth and get carted off for a rabies test. Gussie’s “mother” calls the president of Glutz and confesses Gussie had scratched another employee. The Glutz president has several employees checked for rabies. Weevil PRs tip off the press. The result is a tiny local item “Several Glutz employees were tested for rabies after another employee was hospitalized.” Two-line filler.But Weevil PRs now go to town. A citizen’s committee angrily condemns Glutz for unhygienic actions. The Health Ministry and local city inspectors are called in and Glutz packages are suspended in stores.All Weevil Biscuit distributors and salesmen are given the tip-off and clippings. They each are heard to say, “Too bad about Glutz-they had rabies develop in their plant and it has been shut down by the Health Ministry.”Glutz PRs now deny that the plant is shut down and say that there was only one case of rabies. The idiots.Glutz staggers into a ten million dollar loss.Their error? They FORWARDED AN ENEMY COMMUNICATION LINE.Glutz could have DAed and should have whenever the subject came up. But never brought it up!And Glutz PRs should have (a) gotten Gussie to confess it was done by Weevil, (b) promptly done a campaign on Weevil, and (c) instructed their own network to say (a new arranged line) “Did you hear about Weevil trying to buyout Glutz yesterday? What these guys will do for a takeover!”NEVER FORWARD AN ENEMY CAMPAIGN ON YOUR OWN OR OTHER LINES!Don’t deny rumors for that is what they want you to do.HAVE A BETTER CAMPAIGN THAN THEY HAVE AND FORWARD IT!Examples of enemy-planned statements re Scientology:1. “People who should have professional help go to them” (Truth is, those who started this kill people with their “professional help.”) Answer: Expose the source as murderous.2. “Hubbard is a science fiction writer.” (This is not too bad as people respect science fiction writers. But it is false. Hubbard only wrote 1,000,000 words of science fiction over a short period and wrote 14,000,000 words on other things. They plug “fiction” to connect it to Scientology. Subtly clever.) A counter-campaign might be (the truth) “Hubbard’s books on Dianetics and Scientology sell more copies than any other writer about the mind. Every psychology course today tries to include Hubbard’s work.”3. “Hubbard is not allowed to enter England.” (The truth is that this was rigged while Hubbard was not in England and is based on no offenses of any kind, a purely PR action.) A counteraction: Hubbard is a popular member in a score of English clubs and professional societies.” The enemy line is now very ineffective. It has put itself in the same situation as the Weevil Biscuit Company! It is wide open to attack in every quarter and it opened the door by opening an attack.Don’t be a Glutz PRoNEVER FORWARD AN ENEMY CAMPAIGN ON YOUR OWN LINES! THE ONLY ANSWER TO A CAMPAIGN IS A CAMPAIGN OF YOUR OWN.L. RON HUBBARDFounder
.
CONCLUSION: For the benefits of "truth in advertising", Hubbard's policy "THE ENEMY LINE" should properly be re-named to "THE ENEMY'S LYIN'!" That's always the cult's answer to having their sociopathic behavior and criminal acts exposed.
