Technology won't save us from ourselves. It can, at best, create structures that make the abuse of power more difficult and its tracks more visible. True "decentralisation" is a continuous process, a verb more than a noun, a struggle not only against central servers, but against the human tendency, always present, to build new hierarchies on the rubble of the old ones. It is not a bug to be corrected, but the human condition from which to start for a wiser and more modest design.
