Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Digital Death as Fast As Possible”.
Death and taxes, the only things equally certain to happen in your life as finding trolls in the comments under a YouTube video, but while doing your taxes might only keep you away from your petty online arguments with complete strangers for a few hours, death obviously means nothing Else ever no more taking pictures, no more google hangouts and no more tweets about your epic half-mile jog that, frankly, nobody cares about. So when you finally do kick the bucket and head off to the great Apple Store in the sky, what happens to all that stuff? Does it just sit there until the end of the world? Is there a digital tombstone? You can leave a witty meme engraved in, or does your digital life just get cremated and disappear from the internet? Altogether great question email didn’t really start taking off until the mid 1990s with social media coming about ten years later. So all of this stuff is still fairly new, with much of it having been designed, or at least primarily used by the younger crowd. So it hasn’t been much of a concern yet, but at some point the billions of people using these services are going to grow old and die with dead people eventually having far more accounts than the living, which might sound like a great setup for some sort of Zombie take over the internet, but that movie hasn’t been made yet so I’ll focus instead on what actually happens, we can’t cover every site and scenario, so, let’s just walk through a couple of the common ones, starting with Facebook. Cleverly Facebook allows a person’s profile to be turned into a memorial page upon receipt of some sort of proof of death from a family member, such as an obituary.
Your page will become a place for loved ones to post memories if they so wish, and you can also designate a legacy contact to maintain your page in a limited way. But don’t worry they can’t rifle through your embarrassing personal messages or, if you’re not particularly proud of the random junk you’ve posted over the years. You can actually tell Facebook to just delete your account entirely when you buy the proverbial farm bill for folks who are more into twitting. A family member can ask to take down your twitter page after you pass away in much the same way, but they don’t offer the same memorialization service that facebook does. So all the social media sites are going to differ a little bit, but moving on from so to media, you probably also have a treasure trove of old email, gems like that offer for viagra.
So what happens to those? Well, some email services like Gmail will allow a user you designate to access your account while other services like Yahoo, don’t allow anyone to get into your stash of offers to enlarge your penis and just end up deleting all of it after they receive a death certificate. So, if your plan then, is to preserve your digital life for posterity, it’s good to set things in order before you make your journey to the great beyond there actually are websites that have begun popping up. That will send your account passwords to people.
You choose after your death and if you want to go the legal route, you can likely also express your last wishes regarding all of your internet accounts in a will. Just remember that wills often become public records after you die so think carefully about whether you want people to know that you used to log into Twitter with the password. I like big butts 69 before you put your last wishes on paper speaking of paper. That’S what I used to use whenever I didn’t have Dollar Shave, Club razors and I cut myself all over the.
I know how to use a razor blade. I mean there’s no excuse for just like cutting yourself all over the place, but there’s no denying that a high quality, sharp razor makes it easier to do a good job of cutting your face. Shoal hair, not your face, just your facial hair, so Dollar Shave Club is the online service that’s available in the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia that sends you new razors and shaving supplies. Once every month, for just a few bucks, they’ve got razor blades all the way up to the six blade executive they’ve got their aftershave.
They’Ve got their shave. Butter they’ve got their one wipe Charlies, which are peppermint scented, butt wipes for men. What those have to do with all the other shaving supplies in their repertoire, I mean you can shave your butt, so I guess they’re sort of related. In that way.
The point is guys visit. Dollarshaveclub.Com we’ve got a link in the video description to learn more and join the club. Now start shaving time and shaving money. I got ta throw that in.
