Digital Assets Directive for YOURNAME
	---------------------------------------------

	DATE



	Upon my death, please do the following with my computer,
	phone, digital assets, and online assets:

	- I assume the executor of my will is going to notify my banks
	and retirement accounts of my death, and take possession of
	those accounts.  I assume either the executor will be given
	online access by the banks etc, or online access will be disabled
	by the banks etc.
	
	There may be some auto-pays (small monthly amounts taken out)
	and "financial connectors" (PayPal, Privacy.com, Transferwise)
	connected to my BANKNAME savings account.  Will the bank
	freeze digital access to the account so those transactions
	and connections are dropped ?  Or maybe the bank can put a
	block on just PayPal transactions, which should be sufficient.

	- I wish to have my domain DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD and web site
	SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS maintained active and intact for
	the indefinite future.  This should cost approximately $50/year.
	I will set aside some money to finance that, in my will.
	
	Perhaps someone from the younger generation, such as one
	of JJJJJJJJJJJJ's children, will do it.  No changes or maintenance
	should be needed, just paying the annual fees, maybe on auto-renew
	and auto-pay.  I will arrange to assign people as co-owners
	of those accounts, or give the login information to people in advance.
	
	Only two accounts are involved: the domain registrar (RRRRRRRRRRRRR)
	and the site-hosting service (HHHHHHHHHHH).
	It might be best to just change the email address and phone number
	on each account to that of the new owner, without telling the
	service that I have died and ownership has changed.

	- I wish to have all other online accounts and assets abandoned,
	without notifying the services of my death.  This includes
	social media accounts, cloud backup accounts, email accounts,
	online store accounts, financial connector accounts (PayPal,
	Transferwise, Privacy.com, etc), online software repository
	accounts, etc.

	- A few backup devices are marked "Info From YOURNAME" and should
	be retained, and copies given to anyone who wants them, but
	especially AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and BBBBBBBBBB.  They contain family photos and
	family trees etc, plus copies of this document and some others.

	- The rest of my backup devices (external hard disks and USB
	flash drives, which are encrypted) are to be
	destroyed or reformatted.  Do not just throw them away or
	give them away or sell them.  Destroy or reformat first.
	
	Probably all you have to do is connect each drive to a laptop
	and format it.

	- The hard drive in my laptop (which is encrypted) is to be
	removed and destroyed, or reformatted.  Do not just throw it
	away or give it away or sell it.  Destroy or reformat first.
	
	Probably the easiest thing to do is just install Windows on
	the laptop.  Maybe get a USB flash drive of 8 GB or so,
	attach it to a Windows laptop, and follow instructions at
	https://www.microsoft.com/es-es/software-download/windows10ISO
	
	Then take the USB drive to my EEEEEEEEEEEE laptop, attach it, and power
	on the laptop while holding down the F2 key (I think).
	When you get a menu, choose "boot from USB".  Then follow
	the steps to install Windows.

	- My smartphone should have the SIM card removed and
	destroyed, and the phone factory-reset.
	
	To do this, maybe see
	"Method 2 - Performing a Recovery Reset" in
	https://www.wikihow.com/Reset-Your-Android-Phone
    
    - WIFE: remember that there is a password manager database on your
    laptop, containing the account information and passwords for
    the whole family.  Run KeePass to open it.  The password is your
    laptop's password typed twice.  (A spare copy of the database is
    on the same pen-drive as this file.)
