> This is not a dead man, I am really alive

Hi there! Just a friendly note since it appears that there might be a slight misunderstanding (perhaps ESL?)

The "deadman's switch" [1] is not in reference to you (the creator) being a literal dead person, but rather to the definition of your service being built to operate in the event something (like being kidnapped/killed/incapacitated) happens to the user.

Hope that helps clear up the confusion.
