The clones retain the same physical attributes and memory as the original ‘you’ just before the replacement. From the clone’s perspective, it would be as if you swapped places with another person with no context of the situation that person was in, except it’s with every living person on earth, everyone but you cease to exist and the original ‘you’ isn’t affected in any way.

How would you imagine the world to become after this? How would the society act now that it has become entirely composed of 'you’s? How would you and your clones live the rest of your lives in such a world?

    Without anyone around who would be sad if I ceased to exist, quite a lot of me would leave pretty quickly, if you catch my drift.

    But then, there’s also that all but one of me would be in my house, with my things. I’m a nigh-agoraphobic hoarder. Several billion of me would be a long, long way from home and my (our?) stuff, and several thousand would start heading to my house as fast as humanly possible.

    There’d be a lot of road accidents. I don’t drive.

    Infrastructure would crumble immediately.

    Anyone who didn’t “leave” would starve in a few days.

    This is not a good plan. Do not use.
