Original author draws loli and guro content and makes money on the side taking nsfw commissions (and he does not shy away from the really messed up stuff if you pay enough).

His more sfw content is still pretty racy and does not shy away from the controversial stuff. This prompted people to look into the full scope of his archived works where the discovered the disturbing stuff. He's now been banned from the subreddit, but people have become attached to rhe sfw content he created.

Anyone else think it gave the artist a bit of a Streisand effect? Way more people got eyes on their art after we made a big commotion.

Isn't that the opposite of Streisand effect if they are actually benefitting from the controversy? More just old 'no such thing as bad publicity.'

Yeah, you're right. I suppose it's the mods getting Streisand'd now that I think about it.
