He has a book out by the name of Technofeudalism [1]. Haven't read it, but I am sure he discusses these ideas in more detail there.
One chapter's subsections are as follows.
> Chapter 7 – Escape from Technofeudalism
> The death of the liberal individual
> The impossibility of social democracy
> Crypto’s false promise
> Imagining Another Now
> Democratised companies
> Democratised money
> The cloud and the land as a commons
> A cloud-rebellion to overthrow technofeudalism
> Back to your question, one last time
"Democratised companies" probably means he stands for anarcho-syndicalism [2] - meaning workers of all companies should be the ones who own the company they work at. Or some similar prescription of giving workers more control over the economy.
