I don’t know how to reframe the question. Nostr is the only sovereign identity I have on the internet. Every single one of my other IDs and credentials have an issuer. If I were the final user of Nostr I would still be able to sign notes and relay them. I would still be me and I would still exist, and no one could take that away from me.

You’d have to completely take access to the internet away from me for me to stop using it. And if that happens we have a lot more issues than just this nascent protocol.
