Is uniswap really decentralised? I mean it has a domain you can take down

You can interact with the contract directly on the eth chain. Likewise you can create a new gui/domain to interface with the contract.

So what happens if a US government entity issues Protocol Labs a cease and desist order (they are the YC-funded, Palo Alto California based creator of IPFS)? Do they just roll over and go out of business? The network might be decentralized, but the company and people behind it are not.

What do you expect them to do? Hardcode their clients to ignore that certain CID? That obviously won't work for a whole host of reasons.

My understanding was the licensing on the web interface was not liberal

No KYC. It's good enough for now.

You can see you used uniswap for your wallet activity so you are screwed if your wallet address is every audited in the not so distant future?
