Karel Capek's RUR more recently

If you watched or were at least aware of Joss Whedon's television series, Dollhouse, then Karel Capek's RUR was already filtering into your consciousness. The corporation in the series that has determined how to download, extract, and upload human consciousness/personality into any human body is named Rossum Corporation. The photo here was the mock-corporate-homepage that was operated by the television series to make the premise seem real, but the site was taken down after the series was canceled.
