16) “You” will be turning into a cloud of data that circles the planet like a thin gauze

While it's already hard enough to tell how others perceive us physically, your global, phantom, information-self will prove equally vexing to you: your shopping trends, blog residues, CCTV appearances – it all works in tandem to create a virtual being that you may neither like nor recognize.

On Caprica, SyFy's prequel to the seminal and critically-acclaimed re-imagining of the 1970s series Battlestar Galactica, the Cylons are born as a result of a computer program that reassembles all the day-to-day data- shopping records, travel logs, internet posts, telephone calls, and on and on- into a virtual being that is indistinguishable from the "real" you, and which exists in what can only be called "the cloud". This is seen by the STO (the radical terrorist followers of the One True God) as a way to cheat death, and later forms the seed of the Cylon concept of "resurrection".
