I wish you all a long....healthy life......but.....here's another item to add to your funeral planning list. :thumbsup:

Google lets you prepare for a digital afterlife- The Inquirer

I thought this was a good idea. There have been all sorts of horror stories of people who have died and family and friends lost access to the deceased online "property."

I killed my google account years ago before it could kill me! Actually, I haven't used anything google in years. For search I've been unsung startpage.com and duckduckgo.com. ANYTHING , almost, is better than google!

When you search with Startpage the Web results are generated by Google. This offers you the search results and search features you may have grown accustomed to.
I agree it does not track your IP.

Well it seems google is killing me! It has ruined my back button, if I hit the back button I have to do it up to 5 times before it will go to last page. Something called googledoubleclicks is controling the ads on the pages. I found instructions to remove it but it didn't work.

When I die, I want my Google account to be Chromed.

Yep, been knowing that. It still keeps me away from google tracking. Note I also use Duckduckgo, and others. There are more than just google.

Call me old school. I keep all my digital records at home, no cloud for me. :laughing:
