>>119743992I'd imagine if we accept transporters effectively do kill you and make a copy, legal responsibility for a crime would fall onto the copy, since the process comprehends the death of the original
But let's say Hitler is trying to escape, goes into a transporter but it malfunctions. Original Hitler is still at the source location so he doesn't die, but a copy is still created at the target location. Fortunately, both Hitlers are quickly captured by the authorities.
So which one do you punish? Both?
So what's stopping you from making many Hitlers to keep punishing?
Why not make 6 gorillion Hitlers and put throw them in the oven?
