Actually quite useful for euthanasia.
In my country, euthanasia is legal, but it's very difficult to stipulate it. For instance, saying you want to be euthanized when you get Alzheimer, is extremely difficult. Such a website could be a solution.
- Broken_Hippo 7y agoTo be fair: it is pretty final. Part of the issue with, say, Alzheimers, is that though you might feel strongly about it when you write it, you might feel strongly as you want to live when you have Alzheimers. You leave the people euthanizing folks that don't want to die, which can feel more like murder than a compassionate act. We need a better system for this. Sure, useful for this, but one's family shouldn't have to resort to what is technically murder to do this. There are surely other methods, like adding qualifiers to the Alzheimer's clause and verified on multiple occasions. Don't get me wrong, I'm very pro-euthanasia, even in a few ways that aren't really socially acceptable. (Alternative to suicide, so long as it persists over some time and one has tried treatments. Oldish but healthy. And so on, so long as it is planned out).
