Decentralized networks such as what? Usenet? SMTP? BGP?
Facebook and Google need to adapt to our laws. Yes, they are allowed to be more restrictive than our laws (till some extend), but not less.
The "just don't use Microsoft/Apple/Google/Facebook/Amazon" mantra gets old very quick. I do use Apple, but only macOS. I do use Android, but not GApps. I don't use Facebook. I use a local alternative to Amazon. I don't use Microsoft. Anyway, it is a chicken egg problem due to the network effect, and on top of that Europe could not win this even if they wanted to because the NSA does economic espionage as well which furthermore complicates the problem.
