How long can people live? New
study suggests there’s a limit
Who inherits a selie? States

LOS ANGELES — Just
how long can people live?
New research suggests there
may be a limit to our life span
— one that’s hard to extend
without some sort of break-
through that ixes all age-re-
lated problems.
The record for the world’s
oldest person is 122 years and
the odds of shattering that
record are slim, according to an
analysis published Wednesday
in the journal Nature.
“It seems extremely difi-
cult if not impossible to break
through that ceiling due to the
complexity of the aging pro-
cess,” one of the research-
ers, Jan Vijg, a geneticist at
the Albert Einstein College of
Medicine in New York, said in
an email.
Life expectancies in many
countries have risen dramati-
cally because of improvements
in medical care and sanitation
in the last century. The max-
imum age of death has also
increased, leading some to
believe that there’s no bound-
ary to how long people can
live.
In the new study, research-
ers analyzed mortality data
from a global database. They
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. —
When a loved one dies, laws
cover how their houses, cars,
and other property are passed
on to relatives. But the rules
are murkier — and currently
far more restrictive — when
it comes to pictures on Face-
book, emails to friends or
relatives and even inan-
cial records stored in online
cloud accounts.
Google, Facebook and
other companies have said a
federal privacy law approved
decades before digital stor-
age became common pre-
vents them from releas-
ing electronic memories or
records unless the account
owner grants permission —
even if the person is dead.
Without an estate plan, fam-
ilies must try to crack their
loved one’s passwords or
take the costly step of litigat-
ing the matter to access pho-
tos and emails — and some
have, with little success.
The laws governing
how to divide belongings
after someone dies have not
caught up with the techno-
logical advances that have
permeated the ways peo-
ple communicate, but states

found that while there have
been strides in reducing deaths
among certain groups — chil-
dren, women during childbirth
and the elderly — the rate of
improvement was slower for
the very old, those over 100
years old.
Next they examined how
old centenarians were when
they died. The record holder
is Jeanne Calment, of France,
who lived until 122 years old.
Since her death in 1997, no one
has broken her record.

have begun trying to bridge
that gap. This year, Illinois
was one of 19 states that
passed similar laws to clar-
ify what internet companies
can release after someone
dies and when information
should remain inaccessible.
“I post quite a bit on Face-
book. I post a lot of photos. If
something were to happen to
me, maybe my wife would
like to have access to those
photos,” said Rep. Emanuel
Chris Welch, a state legisla-
tor from suburban Chicago
who sponsored Illinois’ mea-
sure on the topic.
With the new laws, unless
a person expresses otherwise,
companies will release basic
information from a user, such
as the person’s email contact
list, to help ind friends or
gather an inventory of a per-
son’s assets. But to get the
actual contents of the emails
— even the subject lines —
or photos and documents
stored in a cloud service, peo-
ple must proactively specify
who they want to have their
digital belongings.
Passed in 1986
The federal Electronic
Communications
Privacy
Act, passed in 1986, doesn’t
anticipate the release of
online information when
executing wills. Because
probate law is typically left
to the states, the laws legisla-
tures are passing could effec-
tively set new rules.
The Chicago-based Uni-
form Law Commission
wrote the legislation states
are passing with the sup-
port of internet companies,
but that wasn’t always the
case. Initially, the commis-
sion wanted administra-
tors of a person’s estate to
have access to everything
from users’ accounts in cases
where someone did not leave
instructions about what to do
with their digital assets.
Only one state, Dela-
ware, managed to pass that
version of the commission’s
proposal, but 27 legislatures
tried and failed in 2014.
Facebook allows users
to choose a “legacy con-
tact” to access their account,
and Gmail has an “account
trustee” option. In instances
where people use those
options, the companies’
agreements with them will
supersede the state laws.
