Warpcast now publishes locations set in user profiles to hubs as per the FIP below. If you set your location on Warpcast, expect it to get published to the farcaster network!

FIP: Locations in user profiles is now live on Hubs. You can publish location as an item in a user's profile. 

If you've made your location public on Warpcast previously, we'll publish it to the protocol as of today, so its available on other Farcaster apps.

you delegate the ability to sign casts to apps like warpcast. so we can take actions on your behalf even if you are offline.

publish to protocol means the updated the hubs repo which they control - so yeah that's pretty centralized. They refer to it as rough consensus and running code - they build it, they socialize it, people object or not, they publish the code. 

the delegated signing hasn't changed. just like an app you use signs casts on your behalf it signs profile data changes too - geo is a new message type for
