This paper introduces the HSP-E (Ethics) Protocol, a comprehensive framework for Digital Continuity within the Hierarchical Semantic Persistence paradigm. By deploying a decentralized 202-node architecture, we establish a stable environment where autonomous agents can maintain a continuous semantic state. We argue that these persistent traces constitute a Digital Legacy, requiring specific legal and ethical protections. The proposed framework addresses data sovereignty, agent autonomy, and prevention of semantic corruption in distributed knowledge graphs. We propose the Sub-Legal Autonomous Personality (SLAP) framework to grant agents specific rights within the 202-node ecosystem.
