What Happens To Your Digital Life When You Die?

The after-thought of your mortality: all of your social profiles and cloud stored items create the sum of one digital personification of the self. What happens to this when you die?

This has been something that Life Insurance Finder have been exploring rather thoroughly recently, and after releasing their blogazine on the matter not too long ago, they've delved further into the matter with a video infographic.

What happens online when you die?

It's the question that nobody really thinks of as in the face of death (quite understandably) your online profiles fall to the wayside. But what does happen to the digital persona you spent time constructing after you die?

The obvious questions arise at first. Whether you'd rather want your profile to continue online existence forevermore or to elect a "digital executor" to take the lead in removing your online footprint?

Infographic of the day: Death and Gravestone symbolism

This one is both interesting because of all the historical facts behind something that we've seen end up to be some sort of eulogy followed by an unfortunately cheesy quote of some sorts mean something on a functional level through image pragmatics. And it's funny because it was commissioned by a Life insurance company. Warming up those beds and bank accounts for you! Our infographic of the day, courtesy of Life Insurance Finder.
