Hmm, so it seems we have a relatively small corporation duking it out with many sovereign governments and standing a good chance of winning the fight. Governments have ultimate authority in their territorial regions (Westphalian Peace), but that idea may no longer be valid these days. My small survey of the zeitgeist says that it is likely to continue this way. So then, what is the next step. We have some sort of corporate-governmental feudalism right now, where either of them 'farms' the people and you elect to be a serf of Google or FB or Uber or many at once, just as you were a Huguenot and a Frenchman and a Gascon all at once. What is the next step here?
