The Hobbesian sovereign has only one source of authority, keeping the peace. To the degree multi-nationals keep the peace they have legitimate claims to Hobbesian sovereignty. I'm not saying that Hobbesian sovereignty is a good thing, just pointing to the philosophical mileposts.

  Locke != Hobbes

The only time an individual has the right to oppose the Hobbesian Sovereign is on their way to the gallows. Otherwise, the social contract holds.
