I find pinging localhost a bit more reliable, and faster too.

'Decentralized Identifiers' centralise identity in the DID. That's tautological.

Thus that in itself fails an idea of sovereignty: that choosing to be identified uniquely is your choice.

Barking down this alley, while useful from the perspective of NFTs, does not add much to the concept of actual sovereignty.
