Lately I've been giving thought to how to implement some kind of system to ensure that should I die or become otherwise incapacitated my next of kin will be able to gain access to the variety of online accounts I use. I'm not necessarily concerned with ownership of said accounts, access will be enough. I don't necessarily use my legal name on all accounts and I am not an American, so I imagine relying on legal means to establish ownership would prove too problematic. Due to the significant number of different accounts that I use overall ( think in the realm of 10-20 ), there is a challenge posed to keep an updated table of username/password combinations in a secure manner.
Is this something other people on HN are thinking about? And if so, how are you approaching the issue?
I'm currently considering using a password manager with a centrally stored database to handle this, and providing a way to access this in my will. I imagine I have made oversights here. I would definitely appreciate any advice. Thank you.
