This raises some important questions around what truly can be considered “self-sovereignty”…
Can you use Ledger without the dependencies on their corporate infrastructure? (ie. Can you download and run the software offline, connect it to your own node, etc?)
Are there cold-storage options available that are NOT dependent on someone else’s cloud infrastructure for transactions?
Only one I can think of (aside from a paper wallet) might be Coldcard?

I don't think you need to use ledger live. I believe you can, say, set up an electrum wallet connected to your own node using ledger. I don't actually do this, so possibly someone with more knowledge can tell me if I'm right.
