    He wouldn’t exist. A copy of him that they could not distinguish would exist. He’d be dead.

    If you say that doesn’t matter to you, fine, but I don’t think it’s hard to grasp why a lot of folks wouldn’t be OK with it, especially as a daily form of transportation.

      If any entity that affects the world in the exact way I would is affecting the world the way I would have it affected, “I” exist.

      My dreams, memories, hopes, and desires propagate through what we call existence and there is zero difference if i was stored in a computer for a little while and or there is two of me.
