The underpinnings of the web are effectively decentralized; I can host a blog for a nominal monthly fee and have a bunch of hosts competing for my business. It’s only become centralized because we’ve allowed our attention to become centralized, and given it all to twitter/facebook/etc.
We’re already seeing the same thing happen in web3. OpenSea can (and does) remove NFTs from its marketplace if it wants to. Like the web, there are other markets you can use, and you could even permissionlessly start your own, but you’d be giving up the attention that comes from using an established platform.
