Filecoin may not be centralised the same as AWS but they are centralised in other ways.
Any time you have a project like this with $250+ million in VC investment there is going to be an inherent conflict in their goals and motivations versus other contributors to the project.
It's like Spark, MongoDB, Cassandra etc. Yes they are open-source. But the billion dollar companies that are behind them hold all the cards and will win against any attempt to take the project in a direction they don't like.
