In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

You can actually set up something for Facebook now. You can either request that they delete your account or memorialize it. You can also choose a legacy contact who will have limited access to the account. I choose my younger sister as she will make it nice and dramatic and tragic if I pass lol.

I think this link explains it better I have had mine set for over a year so it's a bit foggy. https://turbofuture.com/internet/What-H ... If-You-Die

How do they know you are dead and have not just "left the building"?

And if you believe google will actually delete anything you are naive. First thing they will do is selel all your contacts to the local funeral firm for a cut, and then lawyers to handle your estate, the taxman so they can claim death duties. Finally , after wringing the last cent out of you, they will selel your details to memoarial firms who will hound your family forever about marble monuments
