There is a story of decentralization and freedom in the modern world that was started by cypherpunks and later supported by crypto communities and free-thinking people. It turned out that both targets still did not meet their expectations due to the great uncertainty of the entire cyberspace. We have come to a ridiculous situation where you cannot expect great help from the crypto or cyber community if you are deceived, but from centralized authorities, even if they are private or public. Thus, the whole thing is still failing on one of the basic ethical principles of freedom, and that is the ethics of justice.
So there is no freedom or decentralization without security and justice.
Dreams are dreams, but today, for ordinary users, the Internet looks more like the Wild West in the early days or Eldorado or a massive slaughterhouse than a decent place to work and have fun.
The statistics are devastating.
