Final Thoughts and Reflection. 520 $a This book explores how social networking platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp 'accidentally' enable and nurture the creation of digital afterlives, and, importantly, the effect this digital inheritance has on the bereaved. Debra J. Bassett offers a holistic exploration of this phenomenon and presents qualitative data from three groups of participants: service providers, digital creators, and digital inheritors. This interdisciplinary book will be of interest to sociologists, cyber psychologists, philosophers, death scholars, and grief counsellors. But Bassett's book can also be seen as a canary in the coal mine for the 'intentional' Digital Afterlife Industry (DAI) and their race to monetise the dead. This book provides an understanding of the profound effects uncontrollable timed posthumous messages and the creation of thanabots could have on the bereaved, and Bassett's conception of a Digital Do Not Reanimate (DDNR) order and a voluntary code of conduct could provide a useful addition to the DAI. 650 0 $a Social media and society. 650 0 $a Grief. 650 0 $a Death. 650 6 $a MeÌdias sociaux et socieÌteÌ. 650 6 $a Chagrin. 650 7 $a grief. $2 aat 650 7 $a Death $2 fast 650 7 $a Grief $2 fast 650 7 $a Social media and society $2 fast 830 0 $a Palgrave studies in the future of humanity and its successors 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20240202024025.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC93C022C19D11EEA89D2B6520ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
