The question of whether we'll be uploading our consciousness to a computer is no longer if. It's probably when. That's because these digital consciousnesses – our essences – will likely be the product of an AI's interpretation of ourselves. The breadcrumbs we'll leave across digital files, images, videos, audio recordings, and, of course, all that social media will be an ample resource to reconstruct you.

If they're posting links in Facebook to Google drive to download content, that's just shady af.

Unless you're getting like pirated content that way. That makes a little more sense, but that still seems like a bad idea.

I would honestly give up gaming entirely if that was the only way to get something.
