If we’re talking takedown-resistance, we may need to enter the dark web realm:
- Tor hidden sites are inherently hard to pinpoint
- ZeroNet was an interesting project, seems to be abandoned
- I2P is like Tor on steroids, can publish all sorts of services
- IPFS is a decentralized P2P storage system (best/worst known for NFTs)
FreeNetHyphanet is a 25+ years old distributed content system with limited support for services- FreeNet is… honestly, haven’t seen a working example, but it sounds interesting?
- Matrix… if they manage to get things under control
- Nostr is a censorship-resistant distributed messaging system
Hosting distribution and localization varies, but they all have features to make it hard to pinpoint host and/or client locations.

Takedown resistance is a consequence of decentralization, but it’s not decentralization itself.
