His post reminded me of the discussion we had about Cory Doctorow's "When I'm dead, how will my loved ones break my password?" (link: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=681753). The fact is we haven't thought about what happens to the online presence of the deceased since the web is still relatively young. This is indeed a complex situation that I'm sure will grab more and more of people's attention in the near future.
