When the virtual become a way of life, when people increasingly inseparable from the network, people increasingly have the same new property: Digital property.  As with other assets that are "not brought to life, not to be brought up", people have to consider the inheritance of such data, such as email or social network account passwords. A survey of 2000 British adults by Rackspace, a well-known cloud computing firm, found that 53% of respondents had property on the web, including paid-for music, e-books, apps, movies and electronic magazines; about 24% of the online property was worth more than 200 pounds. The survey thus calculated that Britons had a digital heritage of about 2.3 billion pounds.  Nearly one-third of respondents believe that the amount of 200 pounds is large enough for relatives to inherit. Some foreign internet companies have introduced policies to address the problem of digital heritage. After the user's death, Facebook will turn the user's page into a memorial site, allowing friends and family to deliver a eulogy on the page. Google allows close relatives to enter the accounts of deceased users, provided they can produce legal death certificates and identity documents. However, some domestic websites have not yet introduced the corresponding policy. Regarding the QQ inheritance question which the netizen most concerns, the Tencent company believed that the Netizen only has the right to use, does not have the inheritance right. Share to:
