The Internet was originally designed to fail gracefully. As routes and servers fail, the Internet was designed to work without them (to a point). Sadly the proliferation of giants like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft has put most of the Internet in the hands of a few companies.
You can technically use the Internet with every Google service blocked and all AWS / Microsoft IP ranges null routed, but it’s going to be very different and most major sites simply will not work.
The internet was designed with rerouting capabilities, where you failed to list some of the big players in that industry. Server redundancy is not part of that design, but was later added on top. Don’t confuse servers with routing.
The decentralization nature of it was also focused on a physical decentralization, rather than a corporate one.
