That is when things get really strange. An individual consciousness could be duplicated. A consciousness could occupy more than one body simultaneously. These consciousnesses could be seperated by distance and latency, becoming seperate entities. Later they could reunite and merge, regaining a singular identity. Or not.
What is going to happen when rich elites begin cloning armies of themselves who share a single consciousness on the battlefield? How can you fight such an army?
