What to do once you admit that decentralizing everything never seems to work

Decentralization is the new disruption.
Meanwhile, Internet progenitors like Vint Cerf, Brewster Kahle, and Tim Berners-Lee are trying to re-decentralize the Web.

They respond to the rise of surveillance-based platform monopolies by simply redoubling their efforts to develop new and better decentralizing technologies.

They seem not to notice the pattern: decentralized technology alone does not guarantee decentralized outcomes.

When centralization arises elsewhere in an apparently decentralized system, it comes as a surprise or simply goes ignored.
