Given that there's nothing more embarassing than showing up in the exact
same outfit as someone else, I think it's unlikely that people will want to
look just alike on a full time basis. How would we tell them apart?

Just wait until you can buy the DNA of a celebrity - thousands of little
Brittney Spears clones. And since it's quite easy to swipe DNA - you just

the DNA of celebrities will be available from some anonymous server in
Finland.
