The act didn't bring Blizzard into public dispute. Blizzard banning the player brings Blizzard into public disrepute because it shows that they are cowardly whores willing to do anything for money.

Do you have any evidence that the free HK statement itself harmed Blizzard's business?

Do you have any evidence that leaving that statement wouldn't harm Blizzard's business?
