Hi everyone, I want to talk a bit more this post, about a news which is spreaded through Web, and It's related to, at first, strange, Google`s new tool called "Innactive Account Manager ". It was unveiled on April 11 by Andreas Tuerk - product manager - on Google Data Liberation Blog. If you want, you can follow this link and read on your own: http://dataliberation.blogspot.com
The goal of this new tool is, according to Google, allows google`s account holders manage their digital lives by setting the availability of their stored photos, videos, e-mails and many other elements, in case, death or larger inactivity period.
The users' inclusion this service can be made through Google`s settings page where is decided what to do with your GMail email messages and data of many other associated services like Google+, Blogger,+1s, Contacts and Circles, Drive, Pages and Streams, Google Voice, Picasa Web Album and Youtube - all owned by giant company in Web search - Google - after a long period of inactivity/death.
Before the delection of these data, it'll be sent a notice about this process via text message to cell phone and email to a second adress provided by the user. So, Andreas wrote: "We hope that this new feature will enable you to plan your digital afterlife — in a way that protects your privacy and security—and make life easier for your loved ones after you’re gone,".
The Google`s inactivity tool will not allow , relatives or friends access directly to the content of a deceased user, only own user will could designate what content It wants to share with your designees. The recipient of these data - emails, photos, videos... will be received by download pack, It`s not being possible retrieve the extinct account entirely. There`s also an option to delete completely the account content in a pre-determinated inactivity period, up to one year.
So guys, for today, this is what I`ve wanted to comment over here! See ya! Chau!
