Second Life

A celebrity holding strong anti-synth views has suffered an accident, and currently lies a vegetative state. While the population laments the loss of a beloved personality, our pro-synth advisors see an opportunity. Digitizing the celebrity's mind, offering them a second life in a synthetic body, would doubtlessly turn some fans into ardent synthesization supporters. While the process is entirely legal, the problem is one of consent: all things being equal, the celebrity in question would never agree to the procedure. Handled badly, this PR stunt could turn into a media disaster.
