Given a teleporter works by disassembling particles of a person, and re-assemble the same person elsewhere (so I'm assuming the teleport is not working thanks to something like a wormhole), how do I convince people to enter any teleporter?

So actually the teleporter do:

  • Kill someone (Disintegrate all atoms)
  • Spawn a perfect copy of the killed person somewhere (Assemble same or different atoms in the same fashion they were placed in the original person)

How do I convince people to die with the promise that a perfect copy will be walking somewhere?

Assumptions:

  • The copy is perfect, so the copy will have the feeling of a "continuous life", however the original is irremediably destroyed.

EDIT:

I already told that under the section Assumptions, but I'll explain better to answer comments. The copy is a perfect copy, so all its memories, feelings will be the same as in the instant before teleportation, after the teleportation a new person is spawned. There is no "awakening" or something like that.

  • Memories of the copy = memories from original body + memories accumulated since the teleportation
  • Feelings of the copy = the same as the original, apart the fact that the surrounding environment changes
  • Memories & feelings of the original = stops with teleportation.

The assumption here is that "self-awareness", memory, mind is all in one with the body.

EDIT2:

I assume the teleport do not disrupt in any way the body or the mind (of the copy). It is just purely the knowledge of how teleport works here making a difference. So if you don't know that your original copy will die, you will just continue to use the teleport without regret. Of course here people know the entering is equivalent to die.

The teleportation process:

A communication channel (be it a quantic beam of neutrins or a electromagnetic wave)) is established and maintained until all information about composition of original body is transmitted, after that the channel should be closed (otherwise it would require exponential energy to kept open). As side effect of closing the channel the original body sublimates in few milliseconds. The receiving beacon should have enough hydrogen (all isotopes) to provide basic particles to reassembling a identical body. Interrupting the process will sublimate the already scanned atoms in original body and create a incomplete body on the other side, as plus, all the particles that were moving to correct locations will become instantly free, and as such they would explode because they attempt to form again free hydrogen (which live at lower density compared to density of a human body). So to avoid a explosion and obtain a incomplete body the process should be almost ended (something like 99,95%).
