• 1. Should executors be allowed access to a deceased persons’ email and Facebook accounts?
• I think executors should be allowed access to a deceased persons’ email and Facebook accounts in certain situations.  Such as Helen and Jay Stassen’s son who committed suicide, due to the unclear death of their son, they need to find out the answer.  Therefore executors should have the right to access his accounts to find more related information.
• 2. Why would technology companies like Google be opposed to laws that allow other people to access a user’s account after that person dies?
• Google is a worldwide company that keeps a lot of customers that based on their trusts on the company.  They believe that Google provides a trustable service that won’t divulge any of their pravicy out.  If Google cannot keep up its service, they might lose lots of customers, which means they might lose lots of business.

I was born in Canton China, and technologies in Canton are rapidly expanded.  Such as electromagnetic stove.  In China, the price of the gas rises every year even every half year, many people are having hard time to afford it.  Therefore, they came up with electromagnetic stove.  Instead of using gas, the electromagnetic stove uses electricity.  Most importantly, the price of electricity is much cheaper than gas, so that most people use electromagnetic stove to cook everyday.  The other thing about the gasoline is electric motorcyle.  As the same reason as gas, the price of gasoline rises rapidly, therefore people came up with another great idea which is electric motorcycle.  They just need to charge the motorcycle at the end of day, then it could be used for another whole day.  However, it always scared me.  Why?  Because the motorcycle doesn’t have any sound, when I walk down the street at night, you can only see the headlight of the motorcycle.  That is one of the reason that motorcycle is kind of dangerous.
