In a couple of hundred years, a benevolent post-scarce society will attempt to exhume all salvageable brains and revive them in a utopian virtual reality for as long as they wish to remain. They will be able to search extrapolated statistics about their lives and times, read about the history after their deaths and the causes of events that happened in their lives, and simulate alternative histories.

Will the software be proprietary? I'd rather be blasted into nothingness for eternity than be revived with a Windows computer.

I don't give my permission to salvage my brain for this purpose. Buzz off

Nahhh if they wake people up they gonna be used as cheap labor. You gonna end up working at the VR McDonalds for all eternity. Destroy your brain and all the proof you ever existed, thst's the only way to be safe.

Your subconsciousness clearly wanted to survive.

No, McGondals is easily automated. We will be used for military weapons.

While automation is easy and cheap, studies show that customers get anxiety from being served by their undead ancestors, making them likely to spend more money to appease the spirits. This will easily compensate the additional costs caused by revival of the dead.

>Your subconsciousness clearly wanted to survive.
It's exactly the opposite - my subconsciousness clearly wants me dead. If I don't focus on something I catch myself imagining shooting myself in the head or slitting my throat. Only my consciousness keeps me from doing that

your subconscious is helpfully reminding you not to do these things. Trust your friendly subconscious!

My own personalized utopian virtual reality would be wild, I'd prefer a robot body. Preferably of a robot baboon. My name will be Barborbot. 

Could this method be viable for technical technological lichdom?
