> Imagine a society where human teleportation is possible, and economically feasible. The one downside (which we the omnipotent storyteller know, but no in-world person can prove) is that it kills the 'you' in the qualia sense, and the person on the other side is the 'you' in every other sense (memories, desire, etc) except for qualia. How can there be a discontinuity in the qualia of consciousness that individuals themselves cannot discern by examining their own internal experience? What does 'qualia' even mean in that context?
