As compared to directly voting for a politican?
If a politicans does something bad, his career is over. If a CEO or a business does something bad, most people dont even associate their product with them. Which is why boycotts (dont buy Japanese, dont buy EA) almost always fail.
I'm sorry, but the idea of the private market being more accountable than a democratic government is ridiculous. Businesses are only held accountable to economics (pricing, supply and demand) and thats it.
