Now if you had a transporter how could you tell? If you ask the newly
transported person they will have all the memories from before transport and
they will tell you that they are the same person.
I think we are quite safe from needing to answer that question. I did
mention an SF story where teleportation was achieved by replicating the
original individual, and destroying the original. Clearly in that story the
original person died and the transported person was a clone. The transport
company kept the truth from the public, until a disgusted operator awakened
the original after he had been transported.
