Would you want your social media accounts erased after your death? Or would you prefer to leave an online legacy for your loved ones to continually remember you?

As with most topics regarding death, the majority of people don't want to address their "digital remains." I disagree. Unearth and examine it now with a social media autopsy. Our digital death is as inevitable as our physical death. And our remains can't be buried or cremated. Just think of all the social media posts we've made in our lives, even if it's going back only 10 or 15 years.
