Social Media and your demise

Have you any idea what happens to your social media sites when you die.  When I wrote my book, The Legal Aspects of Dying, I did not give a thought to social media sites and whether our own will continue after we have left planet earth. On page 46 of my book I do give some things to think about such as what could happen if you leave gold fillings in a deceased person’s mouth – the gold gets stolen! I also caution family and friends to ensure that the dates on all certificates etc are correct or it can turn out very expensive, especially if ICU and Death Certificate dates are not compatible. In the final chapter on making our own preparations so that it will not be a burden to our families I thought that I had included everything but then came along an article on what I forgot.
