This is the sort of thing that persuades you to have encrypted personality backups, on write-once media, stored in multiple locations where you don't know some of the locations, just how to go about retrieving a copy.
Apart from the squick factor you can see this as an information security problem: you don't want unauthorised people accessing the data, you don't want unauthorised people changing the data, you want to ensure you can get at the original data yourself. If you substitute 'personality/ experiences' for 'data'...
You know you're in real trouble when you know you're a backup not the original, and, you're going to have to assasinate your original because they've been hacked. And, how do you be completely sure you're not a hacked assasination attempt on your uncorruted original?
You need friends, enough and well enough distributed that you can be pretty sure they wont all be subverted at the same time, hopefully the majority will be OK.
