Facebook to keep profiles of deceased users

Just in time for Halloween- Facebook has decided to not only hold onto everything on their users’ profiles while they’re alive, but to guarantee that they keep it forever even afetr they’re dead, according to an article from the Associated Press. Apparently, all that is needed is an obituary or a news story about the person’s death.  More information on the subject may be found here.

I give it a day or two before someone gets pranked by getting their Facebook memorialized.  Or gets “Rick Astley’s Career” memorialized, since it’s long been dead, MEME’s aside.
