...wait, that's already a Black Mirror episode, you can't do that. I'm with you, though. I've already taken the liberty of thoroughly wrecking my personal mental vessel, and I'll happily maintain my monopoly on doing so. I'd need to see the technology demonstrated on people/guinea pigs for a full generation before I adopted it. With any luck, by the time they can preserve my consciousness forever, it's absolutely useless, but there are ordinances in place preventing my termination. That's my long term plan for stickin' it to the man. Not good odds for me, I think.
