Ok, we all know that I’m a horrible and evil person. This is not news. But really… I just saw this story on the news. Brief synopsis: 21 year old dude dies. Family distraught. Family wants access to dude’s FB account so they can have his memories. Father makes a touching youtube plea. FB says “of course we’ll hook you up.” News says “That’s so touching. It’s great that Facebook is doing the right thing.”
FUCK THAT!!!
If I die, my online persona dies with me. Ya’ll want my shit, you best keep me alive. You don’t know what horrible stuff is in here. If I wanted you to have access, I’d give it to you. I’m working on getting a cybernetic implant that notices my brain function has stopped for more than 30 seconds, automatically erases my presence from the cloud, toasts my hard drive and then explodes incinerating my body and anything in a one mile radius.
Cortex Bombs FTW! (and by the way, to me, FTW has a Taz meaning not a Twitter one.)
