Decentralized web

A decentralized web is a way for people around the world to share information and use the internet without relying on a specific, centralized place or organization that has control over all of the information. Instead, everyone can share their own thoughts and opinions with anyone else, regardless of their location. There are many advantages to having a decentralized web – it can help ensure that everyone gets the same access to the same information, no matter where they are in the world, and can help make sure that no one person has too much control over what is shared.
