>FOSS backend/frontend That phrase does not address where and how to host data and run software, and while I think an e.V. would be a great idea, it also does doesn't address it. So these concerns seem orthogonal to my input. The IC Protocol is indeed about redundancy and resilience, but also about sovereignty and security, and it does not just host data (like torrents) but also runs software in a verifiable way (in particular, for every message you get from a dapp on the ICP, you get a certificate that proves that the majority of nodes in the subnet agree on the result). In a nutshell, it's a platform that gives you many guarantees (security, redundancy, sovereignty) out of the box - as opposed to classical solutions which have to be composed of many different building blocks that need to be orchestrated to work together.
