Everyone On the Web Will Die. What About Their Data?- The internet is aging. As soon as the 2060s, there may be more dead than alive users on Facebook.
The internet is aging. As soon as the 2060s, there may be more dead than alive users on Facebook. We know that everyone using the internet will die, and that hundreds of millions, if not billions, will do so in the next three decades. We know this poses a serious threat to an economy based on targeted ads (the dead don't click on them). We also know that whoever seizes control over dead-user data will wield enormous power over our future access to the past. Just consider that one person –Elon Musk, no less– now owns the entirety of the tweets that constitute(d) the Arab Spring, #MeToo, and Black Lives Matter. When future historians seek to understand their past, it is the Musks and Mark Zuckerbergs of the world who will set the terms.
