It's the future, and people are having sex with a hologram of you. Do you care?

In My Humble Opinion
1

Based on this thread about holograms.

I have a future viewer, allowing me to see the state of the world in years to come. Around 2130 technology begins to stagnate and slow down, for holographic technology has been perfected. Allowing recreations of people, places and events, all aspects of society begin to recluse themselves in their own holographic suites to indulge their fantasies. All of it is just sophisticated software - holographic people are not sentient and laws have been passed against making holograms sentient (AIs are untrusted after the cyborg war of the 2090’s). Naturally, they’re using it for hanky-panky.

HoloSoft™, the company behind 90% of home holosuites, sells scenarios to program into the holodeck. They’ve looked through thousands of pictures of people of the past, finding one of you. After positive initial market research, they’ve distributed a program of your facsimile and it is one of their best sellers. People around the globe now get their rocks off to your image. Since we’re all dead by the 22nd century, HoloSoft doesn’t have to pay royalties to anyone.

The question is, do you care? If you want, I can release an inverse tachyon pulse throughout the timestream that would erase all images of you just after you kick it, so HoloSoft can’t use your image for filth. What say you?

If it was happening now, I’d be bothered by it. but as I will have no great-grand children to be disturbed by images of great-grand-mama enacting the Kama Sutra; wank away, future generations!

3

I would be flattered, but not surprised.

4

I’m a future sex toy. Sweet.

5

I guess I would wonder why. Would this be a hologram of the younger, better looking but still rather small and skinny me, or the cadaverous bald-head I see in the mirror today?

6

I’m male, and available. Why use a hologram?

7

Beat me, fuck me, make me write bad checks.

8

By the time holograms had been invented we’re all dead.

Multiple models are available for the discerning customer.

If I’m dead, meh. If I’m around, I might somewhat pissed about it, but I probably wouldn’t bother to do anything about it.
Let’s put it this way: I wouldn’t be pissed as in, “fuck them, why are they doing it?” but more like, “eh…that’s a wee creepy.”

10

Heck, go right away, it’s *they *who are the ones getting it on with a virtual simulation.

11

I care. Not about the sex part but I want my money and I’m petty enough to stop future generations from having holosex with me over a few bucks.

12

Only if it impacted me more than people wanking to my ideal bod* right now, otherwise it’s just an A/V upgrade.

*Their image of my ideal bod, as opposed to, say, my actual one.

13

I’m kind of annoyed that my hologram is getting more action than *I *am.

14

How about a space-time wormhole feature that allows you to feel it in the present whenever someone has sex with your hologram in the future?

15

I would question their taste, if not their sanity.

16

If they are furiously maturbating over images of the younger me, I understand perfectly. I do that myself.
Do I care? That’s a foolish question. If I’m dead when all this is happening, I’m incapable of having any kind of opinion about it.

17

Great. Now I can be jealous that my hologram has a better sex life than I do. Joy.

Color me bemused.

18

It depends. Is my hologram having sex or is it just an image of me looking pretty?

I’d hate the world to see the faces I make during sex.

19

On the other hand, they can’t see your face if they’re sitting on it.

20

It depends.
Are they paying me royalties for this?
