    Adding to your examples in the cannon of Star Trek the teleporter is not a murder machine, except for all those transporter accidents. In "Daedalus" (ENT) the creator of the teleporter somehow proved it, even if not every officer believes that yet.

    Real life though, I'd never set foot in a transporter. A real life, Star Trek like transporter would definitely be a murder machine though.

      The real life version wouldn't even make a copy somewhere else, it would just be that phone booth from Futurama.
