While I agree that the internet in its current form is largely centrally controlled, I still feel that it is a powerful decentralizing force.


Prior to the internet we got our information from very limited sources and now we have far greater access to information. The internet and cryptography spawned the cypherpunk movement which led to Bitcoins creation.


I feel that Bitcoin is a continuation of the long trend of decentralization and disintermediation.
