Since when is it selfish to control ownership of your own body? I expect even control of your own flesh will eventually be taken by the state. Wasn’t there another thread about the UK making organ donation automatic unless you specifically file to opt out?

yes there was an article about the UK making it organ donation the default.

There was also a recent story about a coroner that refused to return body parts of a dead guy to the family. The family lost in court as there was no law saying they actually had ‘ownership’ of the body and associated parts. Must be limited to that state but it give you a pause thinking the govt can do whatever it wants with your body. Kinda like China does with its prisoners.
