You seem to be confused about how Nostr is censorship resistant. That's fine. It's still really new. If someone gets censored or banned, since we follow public keys across the Nostr protocol, anyone that is censored or banned can continue to post on a new relay and or on a new client. They can even run their own relay and run their own client. It's all open source. You can't be banned. Your followers can follow you across the network onto new relays. That's the beauty of it all. Now, the person that had their NIP-05 ID revoked, they can continue to post on Nostr. In fact, they've been posting all along over the past two weeks since I removed their ID. It didn't affect them at all. They didn't even notice until recently! Again, this is all by design. This is why Nostr is fantastic at being censorship resistant! Understand now?
