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.
