The paper puts forward an unusual prediction that cultivating a clone can curtail the lifespan of the clone donor. Neither the arrangement of this suggested empirical study nor the analyses of the anticipated outcomes rely on the accompanying theoretical contemplations. This prediction has come from the interpretation of the genome as a "barcode". The genome is considered as an identification label rather than a repository of control information, so living beings are portrayed as a community of users on the "Internet of the physical Universe". Thus, biological objects with identical (or nearly identical) DNA structures can interfere, and the surmised remote impact appears tangible. The effect of clone-donor interaction leads to a decisive Experimentum Crucis that can reject the common view on the organization of biological information processing. Exploitation of this effect can be potentially dangerous.
