gollark: It seems like they have a state of general disrepair going on and have badly patched over it.

gollark: Basically all widely-used software has had exploitable flaws of some kind, it doesn't seem to be getting better on the whole, and I don't want that sort of thing running my brain. At least actual brain hardware seems to mostly be insecure in ways which require physical access.
gollark: My main worry with uploading would be possible data loss due to not-entirely-refined processes and/or missing some important bits, and also the current horrible state of software security.
gollark: I mostly store my notes on computers, which have ridiculously huge capacity compared to paper.
