Digital Ghosts What Happens to Our Data After We Die

By Dinesh Deckker & Subhashini Sumanasekara
What happens to your digital life when you're no longer here to manage it? Your social media profiles, emails, search history, and cloud storage don't just disappear-they linger, creating a "digital ghost" that can outlast you by decades.
In Digital Ghosts, authors Dinesh Deckker and Subhashini Sumanasekara take you on a witty and thought-provoking journey through the concept of digital immortality. From the rise of AI-driven legacies to the legal and ethical implications of your digital afterlife, this book explores how your online self continues to exist long after your physical self is gone.
With humor, reverse psychology, and a playful tone, Digital Ghosts challenges you to rethink what it means to live-and die-in the digital age. Should you meticulously curate your online presence? Or is it time to let go and embrace the unknowns of the digital afterlife?
This book will make you laugh, reflect, and reconsider how you want to be remembered in a world where your data lives forever. Whether you're intrigued by the idea of leaving a lasting digital legacy or ready to delete your embarrassing posts, Digital Ghosts will give you a fresh perspective on life, death, and the online world that connects us all.
