Personally, I know a handful of people I would trust to execute a non-legally-binding will who are also competent enough to combine a key and some encrypted data if they have both.
- mrdazm 7y agoThat's awesome
- StavrosK 7y agoThat's mine, by the way, so I'm available to answer questions if anyone wants. I'm actually planning to rewrite it and move it to a new stack soon. It also accepts cryptocurrencies if you are so inclined (you have to email me to arrange that, but I'll add a payment processor with the rewrite). I plan to add some more features with the rewrite, mainly file hosting for a monthly fee (many people have requested it).
- latchkey 7y agoWhat I really want is 2FA login.
- StavrosK 7y agoOh that's definitely coming.
- emme 7y agoI'm not a native speaker, so maybe there is some nuance I am missing... Why not a "dead person's switch'? Is legacy control a male only thing? Nevertheless, great service indeed!
- fencepost 7y agoIf you don't already have it the ability to specify multiple check-in email addresses would probably be good. Too many ways to lose access to email accounts for that to cause distribution of "if you're reading this then I'm probably dead" messages.
- StavrosK 7y agoAh, good idea, thanks!
