Google is a company, it's not comparable. Companies almost by definition seek to gain at the expense of others, if not initially then a few years in after the honeymoon.
I agree that decentralisation is the whole point of the WWW and I use it in that manner, I think people who spend all of their time on one or two centralised platforms are bizarre.

The rhetorical does not dictate what will actually happen. Crypto is a step ahead of regulators, in much the same way that uber was ahead of regulators. That allowed uber to blast through a global complex of taxi regulations. Crypto has/is similarly able to innovate outside of a handful of institutions. That does not mean that it's unregulatable. Also, if both regulated and unregulated options exist... there's no reason to think that the unregulated one wins.
