I'd prefer no tyranny at all, but if I had to choose, I'd pick the tyranny of corporations because, at least, companies don't have a monopoly on violence.
Yet
Already.
Just off the top of my head, pepsi had one of the largest navies in the world at one point, and both coca-cola and nestle are known for hiring mercenaries to kill and threaten their own workers (union leaders and or striking workers). I don't doubt that's the very tiny tip of the corporate violence iceberg (beyond the inherent violence in slave or near slave labour).
The Pepsi one was a technicality though wasn't it? Didn't they sell the ships off right after acquiring them, and also didn't have them manned? The coke one is new though (are they owned by nestle? that one wasnt.) Where in the world is that happening at?
