Well you need some kind of formal structure which owns critical assets (such as domain names, brands) and allows for your desired model of governance. Individual people owning things largely increase the risk of a hostile takeover. A non-profit where members elect the "leadership" (which can have very few actual responsibilities) seem to work fine. Of course that means you need to find someone willing to take that position (usually on a volunteer basis)
