Eh you might can reverse the aging process with the nanobots and live a lot longer but it won’t save you from dying in a car wreck or getting shot in New Orleans

One of the reasons we can take risks is knowing we're eventually going to die anyway. If we're immune to aging and disease that mindset might change.

So we're going to go from zero nanobots to nanobots with the ability to reverse aging in 8 years
Well, maybe not for you or I, but Bill Gates, and some Saudi's can afford that.

The families like Rockefeller/Hearst/DuPont/Rothschild et al, will never allow the plebes to have that sort of technology.

They’ll keep it for themselves

Given the state of clown world today and projections for the future, living forever is the last thing I want to do.

Unless this entity contains my consciousness, having an eternal cyber copy of me does me no good.

Then, in a very real sense your “house” is empty, the original occupant, like Elvis, having already left the building.
[Spoilers if you haven’t read the novel]
In C. S. Lewis’s third novel in his Space Trilogy, That Hideous Strength, the bad guys, the novel’s equivalent of today’s globalist one world utopians, using a “scientific institute” backed by the state and having its own police force is seeking “immortality” for mankind.

The institute has a titular head for public consumption who knows nothing of its real intentions and methods. Its directions come from a world renowned scientist that was executed for murder by beheading and whose head is kept “alive” by bioscience and neuroscience at the institute.

It demands regular meetings with the actual directors of the institution to give them their marching orders. They believe keeping the disembodied head “alive” via tubes, pumps, dials, blood and fluids, its brain, now the first of new immortal mankind,“surviving” where they believe reside intellect, reason, self-awareness, and consciousness.

In the end they painfully discover the executed scientist’s consciousness no longer inhabits the brain, it having been replaced by a demonic entity (or perhaps entities) that’s been running the whole show.

Your comment about a mirror site without your consciousness made me think of Lewis’s novel and this:
quote:

“When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, but finds none.

Then it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when it comes, it finds the house empty, swept, and put in order.

Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there, and the last state of that person is worse than the first.

So also will it be with this evil generation.”Matthew 12:43-45

BINGO. Well said. We have a mandatory vaccine that does not prevent the disease. It's side effects can be fatal or life altering.

Technology has already surpassed the average human's ability to use it for good.

Imagine what it will be when AI becomes the norm. shite shows galore.
