At what point do you no longer become you?

Brain

I'm willing to concede that you can make a great approximation or even a synthetic clone of a human brain but once your whole brain is replaced with tech I'm considering you a new person.

As a matter of fact, when people have retrograde amnesia I'd consider it hard to find them accountable (to the same degree) for the things they did with their old memory.
