      title = {The creation and inheritance of digital afterlives : you  only live twice /},
      abstract = {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 Bassetts 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 Bassetts  conception of a Digital Do Not Reanimate (DDNR) order and a  voluntary code of conduct could provide a useful addition  to the DAI.},
