I talked about it in a previous chapter, but basically the antidote to all of these is immediately revocable authority (basically, free association). This is what makes the mastodon a good model vs centralized social media. By being federated, you can leave without (necessarily) losing your connections and (with account transfer) you can even move the rest of the data.
Any bureaucracy can be exactly as corrupt as it is able to keep people under it's control. If it can be dissolved or those under it's control can leave at will, things can only get so bad.
