If my brain-state can be replayed into a clone body, it seems likely it
can be replayed into any ol' body. Or into a clone before I'm dead, if
the genetics of the host body are really critical. So why should my
employer
wait until I die before obligating me to restore their oh so valuable
training into a new body?
I assume my non-compete contract will have something in it to keep me from
selling copies of my brain state to competitors, though.
