You know those sci-fi teleporters like in Star Trek where you disappear from one location then instantaneously reappear in another location? Do you trust that they are safe to use?
To fully understand my question, you need to understand the safety concerns regarding teleporters as explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQHBAdShgYI

I wouldn’t, because the person that reappears aint me, its a fucking clone. Teleporters are murder machines. Star Trek is a silent massacre!
Now I want to see a dystopian fiction where the original instances of a person are taken away and used as slave labor while the clones come out the other side thinking they’re the only copy.
there’s lots of possibilities there. You could make it be conspiratorial, where the general public thinks its the teleporter from the storybooks and television of yore, but the corporation that created it knows the dark truth and thought of a “solution”.
Or, you could go a far darker route, and have it be known, accepted, and part of the established worldview, and have the reader be mortified at everyday people’s non-reaction to it.
