A better question: can a person who is expecting to be executed sign up to cryonics?
As long as they’re OK with the cryonics provider getting them post-autopsy a week after death.
I really doubt they’re going to get timely access, and the chance that the instructions on that dogtag will be followed is probably about zero.
Can a person who is sentenced to a fine that would wipe out their savings planned for cryonics ask the judge nicely to be executed and frozen instead?
I’ve never seen anything against that in public cryonics signup paperwork, but that would be a great question to ask one of the labs offering it!
The legal system would probably start caring a lot more about prohibiting it once we figure out how to get people back after cryonics.
