What happens to your data after you die?

from Too Embarrassed to Ask · host Recode

Phil Libin, the former CEO of Evernote and managing director of General Catalyst, talks with Recode's Kara Swisher and The Verge's Lauren Goode about the thorny issue of what happens to our digital profiles and data after we die. Libin says Evernote worked on a possible solution to this called Evernote Century, but after more than a year the company abandoned the project. The trio also discusses the gray area of Facebook Pages whose only administrator is deceased and digitally purchased books, music and movies, which technically are not supposed to be inherited.
