Survey Data

Each year the digital death survey is conducted. It explores and examines societies sentiment and behaviours around death and dying in relation to the internet.

 

According to the Digital Death Survey, the importance society places on being able to “view” social media accounts of the deceased appears to be increasing year on year.
