Death and the Internet
A recent extension to our cultural relationship with death is the increasing number of people who die having created a large amount of digital content, such as social media profiles, that will remain after death. This may include upset caused by automated features of dormant accounts (e.g. birthday reminders), uncertainty of the deceased's preferences that profiles be deleted or left as a memorial, or whether information that may violate the deceased's privacy (such as email or browser history) should be made accessible to family.
