Aside from all of the questions as to the scientific viability of resurrection through cryonics. I question the logistics of it. What assurance do you have that a cryonics facility will be operational long enough to see your remains get proper treatment? Or furthermore what recourse is there if the facility and the entity controlling it does in fact survive that it will provide the contracted services? If the facility has no legal liability might it not rationally choose to dispose of cryonically preserved bodies/individuals rather than reviving them.
I know that there is probably a a page somewhere explaining this, if so please feel free to provide in lieu of responding in depth.
Um... first of all, you've got a signed contract. Second, they screw over one customer and all their other customers leave. Same as for any other business. Focusing on this in particular sounds like a rationalization of a wiggy reaction.
so explain to me how the breach gets litigated, e.g. who is the party that brings the suit and has the necessary standing, what is the contractual language, where is the legal precedent establishing the standard for dammages, and etc..
As for loss of business, I think it is likely that all of the customers might be dead before revival becomes feasible. In this case there is no business to be lost.
Dismissing my objection as a rationalization sounds like a means of maintaining your denial.
