Think like identity theft, they transform their body to match your body, and their voice matches your voice. The only way they can get detected is if they get arrested and the authorities use a machine to verify someone's true identity.
Don't forget, this is the information age, they might have surveillance capabilities to monitor the way you talk, and be able to record your authentication methods.
Hmm. I'm not entirely clear here...are you saying the answer to both of the two questions is "no"? I mean, you didn't explicitly say that the doppleganger has the same knowledge or the same possessions, but you also didn't explicitly say that they didn't.
They don't have a replica of your brain, if that's what you are asking.
They just look the exact same as you, along with your voice.
But they might have hacked your phone and started listening in to be able to mimic the way you talk.
No, but they could just steal your phone, or better yet, just kidnap you and lock you away then steal your clothes too.
Okay. In that case, I think that I'd probably use that, since there will definitely be information that I could show other people that only I know. Passwords, past private memories with people I know, that sort of thing. Maybe if one is optimistic, my doppleganger could guess or somehow obtain one or two, but if we do a number of these, I should be able to pass many more of these than my doppleganger.
how about i just fuck them then 🤗
That begs the age old question... would that be incest, or masturbation?
since its a completely different person that just tries to look like you, neither. A bit of narcissism maybe.
