Base internet is democratizing at complexity = 1. The moment complexity on the web goes up, your need for governance structures goes up and the web becomes a force for centralized control of entities on the web: Human or otherwise. The higher the level of complexity, the better the tools required to manage and analyze data. Therefore the better the tools available to analyze and manage humans. I guess, if you project this, then the highest levels of the web probably are fully centralized and firewalled networks,. At some point you have to deal with attackers, inimical and hostile networks and attacks to take over your "stack" of complexity/society. With the internet and high enough complexity, You can finally attack some subset of human behavior, privacy, brains, or information with automation. The internet is probably the equivalent of flight based damage to fortresses. And this is before people discuss something like singularity AI.
