@julian Thank you for sharing. This is my experience as well… at least a year of sorting things out.

One of my takeaways is that online platforms will have lots of settings for memorializing accounts or deleting them completely. But they aren’t going to teach you how to download your content and make it available to your family in a sensible way.

It will actually be an open discussion as part of the session, what are designers' responsibilities. I'm also thinking of books, music, playlists that are likely to get lost…

People have of course been talking about these things for a long time but I don't see any clear answers.

Designers at least carry much of the weight of consent, information and communication. My reflection is that this can generally be done in a much better and more proactive way. And assume responsibility and talking about it more openly is a step forward.
