You can’t even move goalposts right. If you run a server for yourself you’ve already collected the ID for its single user.

Since you’re not interested in honest discourse and are pushing an agenda, I’ll now block you. Have a great life!

You do not understand the platform and are speaking out of ignorance. You do not need to run a node to use the platform and no one can stop you from joining.

If you run a node you participate in the network, your user does not reside or originate from your node it is distributed as all metadata is stored on chain.
