That will mean companies won't have any privacy at all (all info will need to be public) and essentially centralize them into a single "massive" world company. It didn't work back then (it's similar to communism in that sense) and I don't think it'll work now (it's every bureaucrat wet dream).

How does public knowledge centralize the control of the companies? Owners would still be in control and there still would be laws prohibiting collusion between companies.
