## Quote — verbatim

> For me it's about censorship resistance and fault resilience — the idea that I can push a job or a function and forget about it; it will run no matter what, as long as I have tokens to pay for it. That is the essence of a decentralized system: there's no single point of failure and there's nobody that can take you down.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Answering why a developer would choose a decentralized system — years before the Parler/deplatforming events he'd later cite as vindication.
