An old lady ahead of me at the thrift store this morning with a stack of books, talking to the cashier -
"I'm buying up these Margaret Atwood books. I heard the Premier wants to ban them in schools. I want to read them and see what they're trying to hide from us."
That's generally how these kinds of bans work. People become more curious about what's being discussed, the old Streisand effect.
