Major leap towards reanimation after death as mammal's brain preserved

Would people want this? Imagine waking up to a world where 200 years has passed, everyone you knew is dead, everything you knew is history.

Why do you assume that everyone you know will be dead? Won't some of them also be preserved.

As for "everything you knew is history", who wouldn't want to witness and be a part of a new world?
