I assumed that it was going to happen sooner or later, but I never thought it was going to be so easy to falsely report someone as dead.
Earlier this week, social media sites had found that Facebook has a page dedicated to memorialising people’s profiles once they’ve croaked it (as seen on BoingBoing) or for when someone’s friends want to play a joke on someone. I may have made a slight mistake by posting this special “I want to make people dead” page to my Facebook wall. My “friend” Johnny sees the page and decides it would be an excellent idea to register me as dead with Facebook.
