I don't know if that's true. At least with a centralized social network we have someone to yell at, and Congress potentially has an ability to regulate it.

Imagine a de-centralized Facebook with the same engagement-optimized feed. Maybe it runs over the Web, maybe it runs on something like Ethereum.

What if we built that, and wound up with the same set of problems? Except now there's no off button, nobody to petition, and government can't intervene.

Decentralization is not a silver bullet. And in this case I might worry that the medicine is worse than the disease.
