Hmm, that is a somewhat odd feeling effect.
The basic answer is that while banning such behavior does reduce corporate influence on politics, it also serves to censor politicians and limit discourse, which can lead to abuse (choosing to censor rivals more than allies, for example).
I'm not sure if it actually going *up* is a desired effect, though certainly any movements would be tempered by the dual nature of the decision. I'll take it backstage and make sure it's working as intended.
I noticed that there are few issues with similar topics and similar results. The same thing are happening, so is this a normal thing in the West, culturally wise?
