I just hope they did not put any money into the smart contract: they might end up losing everything like The DAO.
Very eccentric use case to say the least.

I wonder if they put a rule like : "if he/she leaves me, kill him/her"

A friend of mine who passed away a while back was memorialized in the blockchain.
Here's an article about it:

I believe there are also some hreads about it o this forum, I think by Dan Kaminsky, but not 100% sure on that...
