Multinationals don't have borders and don't have exclusive access to people and they don't (currently) wish to because they sell different products and it would be pointless for them and for people to be able to buy from only one company. So that endgame would work only if multinationals take over and rule the world together. That happened in Continuum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuum_(TV_series) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuum_(TV_series) a Canadian dystopian sci-fi TV series.
