    Irrelevant, but just thought I’d say: If it’s impractical to decentralise, it should be owned publicly e.g. open source, cooperative, mutual or government business model

    Applications that rely on a central authority. For example, the current NFT artwork mania runs on a couple of centrally-operated websites. Once those sites go down, most of the URLs that those NFTs are linked to are going to stop resolving. It’d be way cheaper and environmentally safer to just use a centrally-operated RDBMS (disclaimer: I think NFTs and most cryptocurrency stuff is absolute bunk).
