I reckon programs or
apps running on the EOS platform should not be called
decentralized applications. They are the same as any centralized web service on the internet, that can access your account, change your settings or freeze your funds.
There was also the issue of EOS itself freezing user funds in the platform, if you remember.

In contrast to Ethereum’s immutable smart contracts, which require a hard fork like the infamous DAO hack.Read in full https://www.cryptoglobe.com/latest/2018/09/eos-startup-uses-backdoor-to-access-user-wallets/
