Facebook can steal your Instagram username. Nobody can steal your ENS name.
You guys probably saw the NYTimes story floating around about Facebook "confiscating" @metaverse on Instagram.
While they did return it to avoid the bad press, this highlights how users own nothing in web2. Web3 gives ownership back to the people, and I can't think of a better example than people owning their own ENS names.
