I'd rather have to do ID verification at a government site that gives out blindable RSA signatures to browse the web with using open source software, than this overseas tech company needing to lock down the whole device and tech stack and not have to 'show ID' at all. One of these two holds elections...

Music/movie corporations and game developers must look forward to an age where people can't access the cache files or hook up a debugger to their apps anymore

I'd rather have no ID verification at all. Give them an inch and they'll take a mile.

One of them pretends to hold elections.

Which public corporation do you think doesn't hold elections?

Does it only count as an election if one’s favorite side wins?

What if neither side represents your interests? What "election" is there in that case?

		There's more than two sides here. None of the 14 parties with >1 seat in parliament fully represents my best understanding of how to improve the country and world on any time scale (long or short), but quite a few of them come reasonably close and I would vote for them without much hesitation (Heck, I wish there were fewer parties, like if five single-topic good parties (bij1 against racism, pirate party for internet freedoms, volt for international collaboration, party animals for environmental welfare, etc., plus greenworkersparty as the current overarching big boy) would band together, it'd be a much easier choice!) That not every country is so lucky (not all of them have free elections, or elections at all) is a shame indeed, but at least for countries like mine I'd be much happier to have a government arrange a system than a tech corporation and foreign laws. Presuming that the 2-party system you speak of is the USA's, at least both corps are governed by your own laws, that's something!

		Simply live somewhere that doesn’t have a broken electoral system.

		Can you candidate yourself in that election?
