Was thinking same a few posts ago-- that there's a serious underlying principle here we need to discuss: to what degree can we -- as online personas -- control our own legacy? For example, does it make any sense to create a hidden profile option that reads something like this: - In the event of my death, I [ ] do [ ] do not, consent to SI allowing my obituary to be posted. - In the event of my death, please make public the following message: [message] Technically, you can't defame a dead person, so there's no legal obligation to not essentially unmask someone regardless of their stated choice above. But is there a moral one? In other words, would it make any sense to consider it a TOU violation if someone did something that was otherwise technically legal? - Jeff
