Here is an odd story of uploaded consciousness, and the steps taken to preserve those who've been uploaded and no longer have a physical form.
To do so they had to make sure that no one was left on Earth who could fiddle with the computers and servers that hold the accumulated knowledge and experiences of humanity.
There were some primitive tribes that were moved to a secure location where they could live out their lives in peace. But humans are a curious bunch and what happens, generations later, when some adventurous members of that sequestered group of people starts to question and explore their environment?
A clever story of the consequences of decisions made with repercussions that extend far past the influence of the decision makers.
The story stayed with me for a long time.
