ghosts in digital spaces

titles explains it all... i heard a lot of deb8s abt the idea of ghosts in my life. whether or not they exist or they can affect reality etc. but this one is a weird one thats almost an elephant in the room... ive heard of people getting PMs from people who have died with nothing inside of them n the like and im wondering. 4 those who believe in ghosts, do u think they can inhabit digital spaces?

lemme know if u have any further thoughts on the matter :)

I might b reeal dumb sounding Abt now but hold ur whorses lemme thinkz

When it comez 2 "ghostz" and swagever, methinkz they r a manifestation of tha rotting, static image in our mindz of somebody who haz passed on . Prone 2 decay by nature of tha human mind, and human mindz r prone 2 going sillay . I consider tha dead angelz in tha same way everything we create r angelz--unable 2 exizt on their own, requiring a human god 2 act az a lifeline .

But online ? Thoze vestigial imagez r given their own standing form . U can reread old postz and they r just tha same az tha dead wrote them . Mayb in a similar vein 2 how our memories decay and warp the facez of past, experiencez w online "ghost messagez" r tha same thing in an (ironically) more phyzical, material form .

But who knowz ! I'm juzt one dead guy on tha interwebz !! I could b wrong :3

i think so yeah, i've dealt with so many old computers, and while sometimes i jest and say the reason something isn't working is because its haunted, i've definitely encountered some weird shit while working with old tech.
