The whole issue of "where will I find myself" after duplication is in

It's even worse (better?) than that. If I read Bruno correctly, he
is saying that the mere fact that every morning when you wake up you
believe you are the same "I" you were before you went to sleep is a
contingent observation. It may be that one does not have to step
into a teleportation device to be duplicated.
Indeed. Even without the movie graph, but with any of Tegmark
multiverse levels, that 1-indeterminacy comes to play. With the movie
graph, our relative proportion depends on all computational histories,
and this makes ourself multiplied by infinity at each instant, and
that is confirmed for anyone willing to accept the quantum wave/matrix
and to reject the collapse of the waves.
So with the DM theory, you get matter indeterminacy, non locality and
non clonability as a direct gift (even without the movie graph
argument). With the movie graph argument you get immediately
*immateriality*. This reduces the mind-body problem to a reduction of
the body problem to number theory (or combinators, etc.).
