Inside this ebook

Sovereign Futures, volume II. A practical case for digital legacy under user sovereignty. The Long-Term Memory Brain holds durable signed entries that the user, and only the user, can erase. On the user's death, sealed envelopes open under trustee multi-signature. The chain survives the vendor, the device, and the model.

The cloud model of legacy is a leasehold
Ancestral veneration as substrate, across cultures
Part II: The Long-Term Memory Brain
Durable user-memory with signed entries
Forgettable on command, with cryptographic proof
Versioned snapshots of the user model
Part III: Lineage Simulators
Speaking with an ancestor under signed transcripts
Consent classes for the dead
Dual-signature for legal effect
Part IV: Hereditas in Practice
The sealed envelope primitive
Trustee multi-signature and the dead-man switch
What a UK probate court sees
