Browserid is not a centralized authentication protocol. Although currently all implementations I know of rely on browserid.org, this is not required by its design.
There's also the fully decentralized openid, you know. I'd 100% rather be able to use openid for sites like Linkedin and this one than rely on every site implementing sane password management.
