The problem with decentralization is the optimization and security. Plan 9 seemed to get it right at the core, but I don't know what it could be used for.
With slow upload speed between peers, you have to change your networking model to have a high level of fault tolerance.
There are many possible ideas to have about a decentralised internet, but should one integrate a software, make it better and wait to make a protocol later?
The problem is that you have to change almost everything if you want it to work well.
