Companies aren't going to manage inventory, customer relations or finance over open channels. So they'd reduce the gains from networking their own internal communications.
They could try to mitigate by rationing secure channels, or allowing them with backdoors, but this still sacrifices the spontaneous creativity of a truly open system.

It certainly would discourage or kill small businesses but, as you suggest, I'm sure larger more powerful ones will get special treatment (native ones particularly so). Considering China was willing to let Google leave the country it appears that the balance of power is shifting already.
