This is not limited to the many-worlds view (or rather, all the many flavours thereof), but also includes the consistent historians (<i>e.g.,</i> Gell-Mann, Griffiths, Hartle, Hohenberg), the Quantum Bayesians (<i>e.g.,</i> Caves, Fuchs, Schack, Appleby) and even the latter-day Copenhageners (<i>e.g.,</i> Asher Peres).

Imposing self-boundaries in what at least tends to be natural and which is the selection by evolution of a characteristic: intelligence. If we can get more skills, more functionalities...why should we stop now? If we play to replicate infinites of possibilities, skills, functions, power as if we were gods, I just say, let's play it seriously.

I agree with understanding freedom as the abscence or lack of conditioning. However, there is no freedom from all possible scopes with respect the choice of your own existence. I mean, I'm 25 years old. I have a girlfriend. She is already starting to think in schools for the kids. Is that future human (my likely son) going to be free? Free in hyper-regulated society? Free under space-time restrictions? Humans are not free since they have boundaries and conditionings. There is a framework or set up (call it biased) in which we can be or not free. I seriously think only a highly upgraded prototypes of beings which we may not be able to imagine now, could have possibilities of being free by being integrated with that set up and controlling it. I'm talking about infinite possibilities. Call it god or Neo or superman. Can you be free without really being able to rule your universe?
