Honestly how decentralized is the Internet? AFAIK there are groups like W3C and ICAAN which basically control domains, and a few IPs which control routing. Most of the internet is also behind Cloudflare, AWS, etc. The key is that these companies are very conservative when blocking users and giving others special privileges. Your service won't be blocked by Cloudflare and IPs unless it's particularly bad or your government requests it. Whereas e.g. YouTube has very strict rules and often bans people incorrectly or for debatable reasons. Idk if the issue is actually decentralized vs. centralized. I think it's "do I decide the rules or do I just enforce them?"
