This seems like a technological reification of christianity.
Putting aside the obvious semantic issues of resurrecting dead flesh (which version of the person are you allegedly bringing to life?), if I were resurrected, I would be extremely unhappy.
- Vecr 2y agoOpt for cremation then, no one's bringing you back after that. Depending on where you live, brain-only cryonics might be a similar price or cheaper. In case you want to try the other way. In that case you have a somewhat better chance of picking "what version", and they might even take that as your preference for a particular point in time in the case they're using another information recovery process (e.g. some Tipler thing.) Neither option is actually reliable for the direction you want, cheap/"free" cryonics is even sketchier than usual, and someone might be able to pull a version of "you" from your writings and genetics. Probably doesn't count though.
