Avoiding Internet Centralization

#networks #protocol #rfc #systems | <blockquote>By design, distributed consensus protocols diffuse responsibility for a function among several, difficult-to-identify parties. While this may be an effective way to prevent many kinds of centralization, it also means that making someone accountable for how the function is performed is impossible, beyond the bounds of the protocol's design.¶ </blockquote>
