@@ -6,3 +6,5 @@ Decentralization
 In computing, a prominent example of [[centralization]] are large online platforms (often related to social media). Decentralization of these includes moving activity from them to smaller servers ([[smallnet]], [[Fediverse]]), as well as moving away from the [[WWW]] towards more [[offline-tolerant|offline first]] or [[peer-to-peer]] protocols.
 
 Decentralization supports [[diversity]] (including [[technological diversity]]) and empowers users to own the technology and services they use.

+Decentralization may also go horribly wrong in ways that work against permacomputing goals with radically increased energy use, etc. See the [[cryptocurrency]]/blockchain world for examples.
