Abstract

In the original language

Digital cloning is the replication of an individual human being in digital form. While biological cloning has a legal regulation, digital cloning is left out of the scope of the legal framework. Digital cloning cannot be banned on the same grounds as biological cloning; however, it is evident that technological developments are outpacing the current legal framework. This paper examines the possibility of digital cloning and its legal implications, especially grey areas in case of protection of individuals and their interests. In particular, questions regarding personal rights protection, both for the living and the deceased, will be addressed.
