Only if they applied the rules equally to all politicians, and only if the process were transparent.

There's a lot of danger in allowing corporations to control the political conversation globally.

Too late for that. They have for many years. This is only the most visible form of control.

Corporations spend enormous amounts of money every year on exactly this. I believe lobbying politicians to take their side and the shaping of media coverage has had an even larger impact than hiding a tweet behind a click.
