"Digital will, what happens to our data when we die?

How can our loved ones manage our digital data when we die? An increasingly important issue as our online lives become richer and richer. 

➡️ Social networks will soon become the world's largest cemeteries. That is, there will be more accounts of dead people than living ones.

Did you know that? On Facebook it is now possible to name a contact legatee who will have access to your account so that he can delete or turn it into commemoration account. But this is not possible on all social networks.

➡️ Our smartphone is nowadays a real digital safe which even contains our fingerprints. It is therefore difficult to give access to it during your lifetime.

➡️ Apple proposes to name a contact as a legatee. After sending a death certificate you will have access to some information, but not all.
