    Quote from Root304

    That is one dread that I still have to shake myself of.

    No way I want to be "uploaded"! My question, immediately upon someone mentioning that kind of thing, is "Who owns the computer? Who built the software?" Once I would be a series of bits on someone else's quantum computer, they could rearrange me or upload any apps to my psyche that they wanted. No thank you!
