even if the technology isn’t there for it to get inserted into some physical avatar at first, most people would still sign-on to simply be stored on a jump drive for as long as they’d like.

Then most people wouldn’t be thinking this through.

What if, by some mistake or accident (or not), you end up conscious and aware while you’re on that damned thing? What would you experience for 500 years on some hard drive? Would it be like being inside of a box?

You wouldn’t even be able to take your own life in that scenario because you’re technically not even alive. You’re just there, in the dark, not feeling anything, just aware. For centuries.

Nah fam. Just let me go when my body is done.
