It will be easier for governments to shut down small instances and smear the owners. I don't think decentralisation has much security value.



This always ignores the fact that several things like networks and server hosts are still fairly centralized.

Unless everyone is running instances on their mobile phones using a giant global mesh, it is perfectly within the capabilities of modern nation states to shutdown these networks.
