Personally I'd rather not have someone play with my body. Cybernetics seem to leave too much room for external control by people who have no right to them.

A perfect copy of you is still not you. That's not really immortality.

The idea is that you will still have your own brain and so it will be you. I used the movie Sarragates for some reason, but its more like the Cybermen from Dr. Who and exactly like Ghost in the Shell.

If they managed to do so i would try it. I was always good in keeping my system clean and safe  :P

From what they're saying, that'll be like immortality in another plane of existence. That's a clunky concept of immortality. I'd be better off with them coming up with some kind of design where a good portion of my body becomes mechanized or something (or they do some kind of biological treatment or something), which in my opinion is a bit more practical than the shit they're going for anyway. At the least I doubt it'll be quite that much more difficult.
