This is so very true. Decentralisation is the only way to go, IMVHO. And the lower network level we can decentralise, the better.
I'd like to see decentralisation-in-depth happening. As in: decentralised, peer-to-peer communication services in a dynamically routed network built on top of physical mesh.
With that in mind I love what Project Byzantium is doing, for example. The elements are slowly getting into place, at some point we will get there, I'm sure.
