Rejected petition Posthumans

More details

We the countersigned believe that any future post humanity could infringe on our human rights, to which a person is inherently entitled simply because she or he is a human being.

From the prohibition on genocide to our right to freedom from slavery and torture, any posthumans could have a hithertofore unimaginable ability to change human life for the worse.

We therefore demand complete transparency and increased control over the funding and use of all post human research and technology.

We the countersigned demand a public debate on all technologies that could lead to posthumanity, from AGI to mind-uploading
