they wouldnt get tyrannical since they wouldnt be a monopoly

and yeah private police exists but theyre never gonna get as popular

for now

since theres gov

Or how about a scenario where a large army takes over an area and security companies aren’t able to combat it

Or how about a scenario where a large army takes over an area and government military isn't able to combat it

Thats a civil war

They happen

But they would be much rarer

why

why would they be rare and those wouldnt

Because when you have much smaller companies, they aren’t able to combat groups like that as well

how

since they have more incentives

Because the companies are weaker than a large centralized army

profits, competition, innovation etc

no how are they weaker

those have more incentives

and

they could not get tyrannical

since they wouldnt ever be able to form a monopoly

how are they weaker

Because they don’t have as many recourses

To build a significantly sized force

how do they not have as many recourses? how does the gov have

Because the government is an entire nation

What? Yes? And that is my point. They have a monopoly on basically everything. What stops them from going tyrannical. So to answer your other "question" about them nto being as effective. Those companies would be able to get to these resources, since nothing would stop them from getting them since they have incentives since competition. So they would be as effective as the government military

even more

probably

not probably for sure

since those companies have incentives and want their products to be sold, they have to innovate. thus get the resources needed

And where do they get all their manpower from?

I mean sure they can be quite technologically advanced

they already are in some areas

in brasil for an example

just like the gov gets them

Yeah but if your having large amounts of competition

Your gonna need a LOT more manpower

what why and how

Well who would you trust your security with

depends
