Digital Afterlife: Who Owns Your Data After You're Gone?

from Tech Talk · host BFM Media

We are more connected than any generation before us. Our messages, photos, searches, location data, subscriptions, and even our voices now live online, often long after we stop thinking about them.But here’s a question most of us avoid. When we die, what actually happens to that digital version of us? Who owns it? Who controls it? And who decides whether it should stay alive, be deleted, or be reused in ways we never agreed to?Today on Tech Talk, we are talking about the idea of the digital afterlife. The data trails we leave behind, the risks they pose, and the ethical, legal, and emotional questions that come with them.Joining us is Suresh Sankaran Srinivasan, Group Head of Cyber Security at Axiata Group Berhad, and someone who has spent over two decades thinking about how our digital lives are created, protected, and sometimes misused.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
