"What Happens to Our Digital Footprints When We Die?"

I've sometimes thought about what will happen to that #digitalfootprint once I or my loved ones pass away, but I've never thought about as many implications as they discuss in the episode.

Thanks @parismarx and @tamigraph for bringing this topic to the podcast.

Tech Won't Save UsWhat Happens to Our Digital Footprints When We Die? w/ Tamara Kneese - Tech Won’t Save UsA left-wing podcast for better technology and a better world.

People need to stop posting photos of their toddlers on social media. No way it is ok for anyone to decide when does one's digital footprint is first being created 💻👣

News flash: some might never want to establish one, once old enough to

A) know better
B) decide for themselves.

Don't think just because you are parenting a young human being you have the right to decide this for them. Don't ruin things for them. You have no such right.

This is especially disturbing among people who call themselves "influencers" and do commercial collaborations using their child in ad campaigns.

When making money [and being greed] becomes more important than your child's right for digital privacy, you should really consider waking the f* up.
