While the idea is commendable, this is exactly the kind of information and trust I would not hand to any kind of an unknown third party. Luckily in most countries you don't have to! It isn't widely advertised, but many countries that offer digital citizen's services also offer filing for a will as a digital service. The details vary a lot country to country, but if you're considering something of this kind, I would strongly urge you to look into that first. Failing that, filing a will on paper is straightforward too, albeit not free. To put it another way, countries have handled wills for a very long time and personally I don't have a reason to doubt their competence much in this regard. An unknown third party on the other hand may leak your data or return 404 without notice.
