This was posted to Reddit earlier in the worldnews subreddit. Given that this subreddit is comparatively large, there are some surprisingly (at least to me) positive responses to this--relatively little "death is good because it helps me live life better" nonsense.

Quite a bit claiming that consciousness is incapable of being copied, however.
