I don’t care what happens to my data after I die. I have left many contributions on Reddit, and I’m building a healthy amount of interactions here. I also ran a successful game server a long time ago and stuff about it are still out there.
It’s about what I want for my image personally. Like, some people want statues and monuments dedicated to themselves. I want the opposite. Which is harder to achieve these days than you’d think.
The truth is that I don’t have a reason that makes sense to anyone other than me, but I’ll try and explain it.
I am a stay at home parent, and I drive a lot. Taking kids to various places. I decided that to support various local businesses I would leave google reviews. So, I started doing that, and they started doing really well.
After a while my phone started sending me notifications. It would be from google and would say something like “We see you went to X shop 2 days ago. Tell us about your experience. That kinda made me feel gross.
I started thinking about how much information we give up involuntarily, and don’t get it twisted. I don’t think that I’m “special”, or that these companies are after me specifically. But where I go, and what I do, and what I look at, and who I am is my business.
I know that I’ll leave some stuff behind. After all I’m on the internet right now. But, I’m going to support that system as little as I can and still be comfortable.
Up to you, I guess I don’t really care how I’m buried for example, but I’d certainly rather be dumped in the woods rather than embalmed and have a plot etc
I could get behind natural burial. Ask a mortician on YouTube is/was one of my favorite channels.
But yeah I don’t care what happens to my body. I’ll probably wind up in a potter’s field somewhere. Which is fine by me. Though it does seem like a huge waste. Like if I’m no longer using my body. It seems like they could at least feed it to some animals or something.

Yeah but why do you care one way or another?
