Getting into a pointless Facebook account is the least of your problems.

The biggest problem is that when someone dies the privacy, etc. laws
idiotically all suddenly no longer apply, which means any selfish
asshole can then start posting anything they like about the dead person
all over the Internet and there's absolutely nothing the family can do
about it (unless it's a complete load of bollocks). As we found out
when my dad died and some loony bunny-boiler started unwantedly digging
into and posting his entire family history. The wacko even posted
images with samples of his handwriting, signature, etc. that can easily
be used by some other scumbag for devious purposes including getting at
joint bank accounts, and yet Google don't give a crap because he's
dead. :-(
