If your consciousness was uploaded to a computer would it really be you? You would still be dead and it would simply be something that believed it was you.

Or am I missing something?

An answer to this is a matter of philosophy. What's makes up the soul? Are you merely a conglomeration of experiences and memories or is there something deeper?
