Sun, 06 Feb 2005 21:28:00 +0000 /?p=356#comment-999 Why would anyone conceivably leave access to their email account, even in the event of death, to someone else? Any stored *personal* email would be there, and any email worth sending would've been sent already. I can understand obtaining legal docs to get any content of legal consequences but ... just for the sake of seeing personal correspondence? Do the grieving loved ones left behind inherit the right to someone's personal life, thoughts, correspondences? I feel for these families, don't get me wrong, and my condolences go out to them, BUT ... they just can't pry into someone's private life, even if love is their motivation. Just beacuse someone dies, it doesn't mean they forsake any sense of personal privacy. Why would anyone conceivably leave access to their email account, even in the event of death, to someone else?
