The first one is only a metaphor - it's not possible now, and we don't know if it ever will be (because we don't know how to scan a being in enough detail to recreate it well enough).    

The second one is WAY TOO limited.  If you put a radio anywhere near your head, or really any other-controlled media, you can be programmed.  By trivial extension, you have been programmed.  Get used to it.
