- We use social media documents our lives. But what happens to your posts, pictures and tweets when you die? CNN Tech Correspondent and "Mostly Human" host Laurie Segall explains what happens to your accounts when you're no longer around.
after i die i want someone to tweet "chilling with jesus" from my account
Claude Akel 😂😂😂
That cracked me up.
Or chilling with Satan.
JESUS IS A DUMB MYTH sorry fam you're just going to not feel anything and be dead. We're part of a collective conciousness.
Aeraea ok if you believe that i can't force my beliefs on you
I think the correct question is what happens to us when social media dies
Smartass
Mass suicide of white chicks
Fidget spiiiiinneeeer
Thousands of people running around putting pictures in your face and saying, "Do you like this?"
Felix Nguyen lol
I hope my TH-cam comments don't get deleted when I die.
(This Comment has been deleted)
Right ? I have comments that like have 3k likes, that's a TH-cam accomplishment 😭😭😭😭
They won't wait that long. If you're messaging doesn't fit their political correctness, they delete stuff all the time.
Lauri Hellen I'm pretty sure TH-cam won't be around forever XD
Ihate to say this but once your channel is deleted, everything involved with your channel gets deleted. Videos and comments.
Me: *about to die*
Me: *clicks clear browsing history*
“With this final action, no one will ever know on what websites I’ve been on”
Me: *dying*
Tell my wife ...
Paramedic: THAT YOU LOVE HER
Me: No... keep tweeting and unfollow those who unfollow my account. Also , no follow for follow .
lmAOO
IWP this comment made me laugh so I left a like. But then I noticed your profile picture and had to comment hey 😝
***** I finally gave into Kpop! It's cool and I'm happy I got into it.
IWP ARMY
StyleByAngie ***** we did it!
What I'm gonna say on my death bed right before I die
"I left a million dollars in the.."
ASVP CHAPO Bruhhhhhh!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm gonna say I buried all my millions under a big "W".
ASVP CHAPO hilarious and original
I'm DYING to say that
ASVP CHAPO lol
I wonder what You Tube is going to do, someday, with videos that are over fifty or even one hundred years old.
TH-cam probably won't exist in 50 to 100 years.
Hopefully keep them
Melissa0774
I want to see "Who's watching in 2084?!"
It would actaully be so fucking cool if in 100 years, these youtube videos are in "TH-cam Libraries" and people can search through them and see all of this right now. Then I bet they would see big name youtubers now like Pewdiepie and CrazyRussianHacker and see them as "TH-cams founding fathers" or whatever. Like honestly youtube is really new and it would be so awesome if somebody read this comment in the year 2117.
I agree and I think all the Google Street view pictures will fulfill the same purpose as well. Think of all the unprecedented historical information that has been documented by that. There will be archives of what every place in the world really looked like. You want to see what kind of clothes people wore or what cars looked like in the past? Voila! There's your answer. I wouldn't even be surprised if future scientist use those images to gather statistical data about people's habits and behaviors in the past, based on the numbers of people they see doing certain things in the pictures. For example, how many people look at their phones while walking down the street. See if the number of people doing it, over time, changes in any unexpected ways.
When I die, I want my account to just sit there. Who the hell cares what happens to my account when I die.
Exactly, just post something that says you passed and leave it there to rot. Idc what happens to my account because people are going to send prayers anyways.
@@krissy51809 unless you fucked up with your life and no body cares you died
That's the last thing I want to worry about when I'm about to die.
"Oh what's gonna happen to my Facebook page?" That's just sad.
Nobody said this is the most important think to think about before you die
He knows that. He's just saying what's on his mind.
i totally agree but i was curious about this just because i have a friend who died a couple years back and i was wondering if i could still see some of the old pictures he had posted but i dont even have a facebook myself to check lol
Matt IKR!?!?! like, boi...
Matt It's important if your only friends are online. Some people end up isolated irl and their online life is their only connection to normalcy.
its not the users that are dead, it's facebook itself
OOOOOOO #ROASTED
OOOOOOHHHHH
oh snap
OOOOO SO TRUE THO LOL
chat?
Legacy. What is a legacy? It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see...
Kate B yes sis!
#hamfam
Kate B I wrote some notes
Yeeeeea boi
I wrote some note at the beginning of a song someone will sing for me.
"There is a way to control your account from the grave."
It's good to know that there's wifi in hell.
Edit: 1:09
Tofu Kingpin Well there isn't. Only pain and suffering; you'll have no time to do anything but scream and cry for all eternity.
Tofu Kingpin um i would pass 😂
Tofu Kingpin the wifi in hell is slow as fuck. Have fun constantly buffering a minute long youtube video.
So 13 reasons why in facebook...noo sir.
Hey It's me...
Mahfuz Anam Ullash "Hey, it's me. I'm going to tell you my life's story... well more specifically, why my life ended"
Hoofbeats Xox 'Hey, it's Hannah. Hannah Baker.'
Mahfuz Anam Ullash Welcome too your tape
Oh god no. Stop, that show is shit.
This is some "Black Mirror" shit
Todd Parker i love that show! so spot on.
they show a part from one of the episodes at 1:46
If this ain't the truth
YESSS I was about to comment about that
literally was about to comment this
Better start cleaning my history browser...
This video actaully make me fear more on death............
bb tee Death is nothing to fear. Fear living a life without experiencing life itself. Don't let time pass by too quickly without fulfillment or ambition. .
Death is something to fear then for me
bb tee don't be afraid the more worried you are the more you'll think about it
bb tee
I can offer you something that you can’t refuse:
Jesus.
Once you got jesus. Death will be a breeze.
yeah... id rather not have a legacy contact on my snapchat 😂
On facebook legacy contacts can't read your private messages.
why dont you say that twice
Gotta keep the streaks
amaya nelson osrs😂😂😂
lol.. im glad i made you all laugh.
I find that the happiest people are the ones who don't live online, unless they use the internet for their work. Then again this could just be me.
Sleepers Depends I'd say
its just you. its a proven fact that the most happy people in the world live exclusively on social media and are surrounded by superficial people
I knew it :D
If thats true, then why are you living online on TH-cam xD
Edit: I previously asked if you were joking or not but I'll assume the latter. Using social media is a wonderful thing, especially for entertainment. But, indulging to the point where it's unhealthy and your only concerns become about likes, status, and what people over their screens think about you is a red flag.
The real question is, what happens to CNN when it dies?
Rosemary From Spirit Halloween For me, CNN already died in the 90s. Is anyone actually still watching this on TV? lol
What will happen to all my streaks when I die 🤷♀️😫
Clorox Bleach WOW you keep hustling around TH-cam
Clorox Bleach STOP FUCKING FOLLOWING ME EVERYWHERE DAMMIT DUDE!
Clorox Bleach anyone want my sc pass so when I die you can keep my streaks
Devon Thomas IKR I’ve seen him on every TH-cam video !!
OMG! It's CLOROX!
hey im dead i programmed my computer to comment on this after you guys posted this video ;)
lol CX
ripperoni
>_>
WHY WONT YOU REPLY!!!
Oh...
Kuush Kinng freakyyy
I find this slightly morbid and disturbing
It's like arranging your own funeral basically :/
Naussicaa Regis I know right? It's completely taking something to a whole different level. If social media means that much to people then our society is messed up.
Totally, im scared now.
Naussicaa Regis well hang on kids its gonna get more interesting the longer you're around
Naussicaa Regis me too :/
facebook refuses to take down my dead frandmas page, she died 4 years ago...
I feel like if I fill out one of those "legacy accounts" that something bad will happen, also this video is really depressing......
When I am dead I will make a selfie and post it.
MrTruth111 I'm gonna get someone to do that for me, and freak everyone out!
Yes:)
i will like that post
#dead
MrTruth111....I will be the one commenting "Looking good".
"She had a friend who passed away.... she recreated a digital version, like a chatbot, of her friend Roman."
That is one ruthless women..... Even in death, she wouldn't let Roman escape the friend zone. Can we please have a moment of silence for our brother Roman.
Politickin LMAOOO OMG 😂
Politickin friendzone doesn't exist.....
Edwin Guerrero Dumbass
so now opposite genders can't be friends?
haiden oml frickin relax, have a sense of humor, enjoy the comment, and move on with your life
This is exactly like a Black Mirror episode...
It's 2017 and graves will now have stories
if someone's dead and comments on my photo or something,i would freak out😂😂
Dhruv Dogra lol it's like that one movie about Skype, the girl who died and she haunts her friends. I think it's called unfriended, idk.
my uncle died then like 2 weeks later sent me a friend request on facebook. I still haven't accepted that shit
RELO ! umm... WTF!?
my friend died about a year ago when a car hit her (she was 12) and we comment on her photos everyday so Instagram doesn't delete the account because of in-activeness.
that's sweet. may she rest in peace.
Maybe to keep the Memory of her Alive.
Olivia S. if you guys don't want to lose her photos just save them, or screenshoot all the info you guys want from her instagram.
its none of your business you creep
Who's the creep?
I'm 12 why am I here?
death doesn't have an age requirement
Haley Reeder but most social media do so his question is valid
ALEC LOVER you either touched the video with your finger or pushed the click button while the curser was on top of the video
this world is utterly and undeniably Pathetic!!!!!Can you imagine, even when people DIE they STILL care about social media
-posted to strangers on social media
Jonah, it's not just about that. A close friend that might be traveling or something like that might not know and this social media death thing could inform then.
No, that's not the reason this world is utterly and undeniably unbelievable, the fact that there are parents that beaut up their own offspring is why it's so horrible, the fact that our hate could drive us so far as to *slaughter* those of the same species to us that have families and friends that care about them, that's why. The fact that in some countries you could be thrown of a building because of who you love, is why it's so fucked up.
Suddenly this whole social media thing doesn't seem so bad anymore does it?
So stop complaining about such minor things that aren't even necessarily bad and gtfo it. Some people want a way to send their friends one last message after death and if social media can do that for you, so what?!
how am i going to keep my snap chat streak?
Visionary Jonathan lmaooo snap streaks addict squad where are you at?⚡️
ZecRec oh woah funny lol😒
Visionary Jonathan Idk
Visionary Jonathan lol
Visionary Jonathan snap bot
CNNMoney? More like CNN wants Money
Of course you have to turn a non-political video into an annoying and repetitive political argument.
But I thought CNN was a communist news network? Or wait is it Clinton News Network? But they're Socialist now?
Jack Sutton *Capitalist news network
all em big youtubers are watching this
Oscar Ft lmao fr 😂
69% of Americans are online lol
but like, for example if i died at 90, i dont think id still have an instagram at that age anyways..
bearbear ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ I would still post selfies
But what if you die next week in a car crash? You can't know if that's going to happen or not. What if WW3 starts and your house gets bombed? What if you get cancer? What if you get kidnapped by criminals and your family can't afford the ransom so they kill you?
TheShadowOfMadness what?? im only making a guess about what will happen and also, your point is completely different.. at least i think i won't have any social media when im 90 but ww3 breaking out is just completely unexpected
bearbear ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ my grandmother died in her 70s, and she had a Facebook account. People still post on it.
weeb
3 drunk guys entered a taxi. The taxi driver knew that they were drunk so he started the engine and turn it Off again
He told, "We are here."
The first guy gave him the money and the second guy said, "Thank you."
The third guy gave the driver a slap.
The driver was shocked, thinking the third knew what he did. But he asked, "what's that for?"
the third guy replied, "CONTROL YOUR SPEED NEXT TIME, YOU NEARLY KILLED US!!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
CQ UpsideDown My dad told me this before.
CQ UpsideDown the emojis killed the joke
CQ UpsideDown 😂😂omg
CQ UpsideDown I've seen this hole somewhere before just can't remember where🤔
heard this joke*
This seems like a 13 reason why spinoff
*_I'M DEAD INSIDE._*
She said if/when you die as if have a choice😂
nomnomgirl513 well, I assume she's pro-choice lol
Лунтик lol
if i had a choice id still choose to end it all
Maybe you'll live forever
Jack Pooper same it would suck living forever
who else is dead watching this video?
silent saucepan I died in 1825 but here in heaven the wifi is fast as hell lulz
and everyone gets a free iPhone
but.... if it's fast as hell.... and you're in heaven..... i've been confused
Im dead from the inside
Does it still count?
Roman
+JollyGoodShowz LOL
2:10 (at a party)
random person: hey, who you texting over there
you: oh just a dead friend
The real question is: what will happen to our CANDY CRUSH
69%
Me: giggles to myself
Fawsiya Abdi aaayyy
Fawsiya Abdi ma nigga
"happy birthday! I'm there in spirit lol" 😂😂😂
This is so fascinating!
"Hey Roman"
Roman Chatbot - "Yo we still gonna smash"
I want my stuff untouched. I want my memories to be at peoples fingertips.
I feel like that whole Chat bot thing is an unhealthy way to get over a loved one. If their dead they're dead , deal with it and move on in a healthy way. People are so fixated on their egos , that they still want to be remembered after they die. We're all inevitable , a billion years from now we won't be remembered especially not by technology. If you really want to remember someone , make sure you take as many photos with them throughout their lifetime and make a photo album .
I think the real question is, what happens to our social media when we delete it.
why did this give me chills
Your mom takes your phone and checks your contacts
Nah. I love you Jesus. Why am I watching this??? I'm going to live till 122. In Jesus name amen 😄
God is the cruelest man, therefore he'll probably murder your ass. Gods are usually cruel.
Kristin Boatemah You do realize that the silencing of opinions is literally the downfall of society? Plus, many Christians comment horribly on Islam. Usually using events like 9/11, but then again, Christians had the KKK.
80 years old. Aaand HEART ATTACK! I'd love for you to remember this comment you made when you die and think " Welp gg. "
FrostyWolfZ How is God cruel? He wanted us to have free will. If everything was perfect there would be no desicions in life.
AmericanNarwhal do u remeber adam and eve
Honestly I don't want to die...I know I'm young but the thought of death scares me. What will I become? Will I be reborn? Will I become another person? I just hate thinking about it. I don't want to die.
Jade Isabelle Not to scare you or anything but I found some theories on what happens after we die. I remember:
1. We will be reborn but lose memory of our old selves. However for some kids under 5 years old could have memories of their past relatives or people they don't know.
2. Animal reincarnation
3. We go to heaven or "heck" (I'm saying that word for safety reasons because of TH-cam)
4. Nothing except falling into a deep, peaceful sleep and never wake up
ElectroBlastLuigi i dont want number 4
ElectroBlastLuigi at number 4 just say death not sleep.and we cannot reborn thats stupid fact that people belive.live ur life when you have it.spend it with family and friends thats the most important thing
Everyone has To die one day we are bound by laws of nature
I have thought about this for a very long time and now I see this video? Kind of answers some questions I guess. Doesn't really comfort me though.

my sister passed away a few months ago and I wondered what happened to her page on Instagram, glad to know her mom shut it down
I live in an area where an unusual amount of kids have passed away lately, about 4 in the past few years, and all of their instragrams and facebooks just sit, frozen in time, the only new things on them being comments from others.
This is so creepy to watch fuck
did anyone get that black mirror reference tho
ChargedMerc was just gonna comment that
I find this so fascinating. I left the passwords to all of my accounts in my room because I want my family to see everything when I'm gone. It would be frustrating to have your dead family members stuff completely locked up. I have so many videos and pictures of us that they don't have. Plus all of my email exchanges are seriously funny. I want them to see it all, but only when I'm gone.
*I DON’T KNOW WHY BUT FEELS LIKE IT WAS SO SAD WHILE WATCHING THIS...*
That's deep. BRB existential crisis.
J HOUSE!!!!
A L E X W I T H A N I P A D YAAAAAYYYYYYY I GOT SO EXCITED
I have a friend who died unexpectedly in 2013 and his instagram is still up and me and his other friends occasionally still comment to him you know just saying we miss him or happy birthday when it rolls around.
I think this is so cool to think about actually. Social media is fairly new and so the way we handle these things are new, too. I definitely see the benefits of wanting to become a bot after death so that grieving loved ones can have some sort of closure, especially if they didn't get to say goodbye. In twenty years, I'm assuming this sort of technology will be more widespread and more embraced than it is today. Most, if not all, people don't want to be forgotten after they die and it's cool that social media is able to prevent that.
lol she said if or when we die.we all are going to die
J HOUSE YOGA CHALLENGE
this put me in an existential crisis again
Know a guy who committed suicide about a year ago and his twitter is still up. Really weird to visit his page occasionally and see the last tweet he posted the day he did it and that nothing has changed.
I would like for my videos too stay on TH-cam forever at the very least.
My ridiculous challenges on my channel will be left for generations to see how dumb my decisions were. 😅😂
Anthony Castillo You should post more.
its kinda sad to think of it like when someone you know dies & theres no more posts on snapchat everyday ever again or any tweets or pictures from them 🤕
I'VE ALWAYS WONDERED THIS
Your followers spam stuff like "OMG I MISS YOU." Or "😫😫😱😱 😭😭😭."
saima yasmin that's true
Omg jhouse !!!!!!
I just hope whoever takes over my social media when i die doesn't mess up miserably
what will happen to my amino check in streaks when I die?!
Tf Did I just watch?
OMG J HOUSE
I really want to leave a series of videos, that will lead people on a quest to a place that I always wanted to go, but never had the chance to.
just imagine ur dead friend sending streaks to u and they're all pictures of the inside of a coffin
Black mirror
My mom runs my dads facebook I think cause one it said he was active 45 minutes ago but he died
Something happens?
all of my friends who have passed away and have social media; their profiles and everything still exists.. up to 6 years later.
"What have you been up to?"
"I texted my dead friend for the last 30 minutes"
*_Almost gonna die_*
Me: Tell my wife...
Doctor: That you love her? Ok I'll say to her
Me: Wait no...
Doctor: Then what? 😞
Me: Tell her to delete my search history
Doctor: 😒
Who wanna keep my streaks when I die , ahahaha jk I'm not gay
LMFAO😂
My friend died a year ago today and her social media is still up today
My friend died like 6 months ago and all his social media is still there as if he were alive
69%????69 hahah 69 so wrong...
lol what does this have to do with money
Wow. This is coincidental. Someone at my school passed away a few days ago.
My friend: Hey so what happens to your social media when you die
Me: We just watched this video together
Black mirror anyone?
Lab Lag I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING BRO
Just made my brother my legacy and he asked me if I was suicidal. Im not but it was nice of him to care 👍
this is so creepy it sent chills down my spine...
My best friend died a couple months ago and I'm still waiting to see what happens to her social media accounts. She was 16, so of course she didn't plan for any of this
