right- decentralization is a dimension of neutrality in itself- in that the technology doesn't prefer any specific center of control

also while "technology shapes society" (so it's not "neutral" in that sense) is very true, but at the same time, often not *intentionally*, it doesn't follow the creator's design
there's many unpredictable second, third, and further order consequences of a certain technological development
(take say, the laser, or the internet, which had very broad unpredictable impact)
as WIlliam GIbson said "the street finds its uses for things"

this is the mistake many journalist-minded people make, they say, go chasing after say, fiatjaf's political affiliations and then use that to denounce nostr as evil technology, or say, "IBM worked with the nazi's in WW2 so computers are nazi technology" or many variants of that, like the "techbro" blather where people don't like the state of society so it must have been the designed intent of some evil computer scientists

so i'm also quite wary of that type of reasoning, reality is as usual much more nuanced 🙂
