If you take a look at the real life electronics industry now, you can see a trend where it`s twindling down to Apple and Samsung
Off topic but not remotely true. Both Samsung and Apple are losing market share to companies. Both combine for a market share of only 40%. At about 20% each they are the biggest, but there are plenty of competitors.

Samsung, in particular, is struggling to maintain market share. Both companies are highly dependent on trends too. Look at what happened with Nokia.

Even then, in real life the anti-monpoly laws would prevent a single company from controlling as many resources as E Corp did.

Once again, I think the vastness of E Corp was a part of Eliot's delusion. It was probably a company like Cisco, JP Morgan or MasterCard. You'd see their branding all over, which, in the mind of a schizophrenic of his medications and self treating with opiates, would lead to some wild conclusions.
