Assuming we're talking about our reality, this device is getting made by a corporation who will release it as soon as the potential profit exceeds the cost from its non-zero error rate.
No, I'm not getting into some Musk 2.0's shoddy body disintegrator.
I always assume this is asking me as if I was in one of the examples universes like Star Trek. I 100% would never get in Musk's Teslaporter, but in a world where it's as widespread as airplanes and trains? Would use, wouldn't be murder.
In the context of Star Trek it's been in use for a couple hundred years. Societally they've accepted the implications and decided it's not murder or clones (mostly).
