We are talking in a legal sense not the one that carries moral and legal consequences. All you need is a computer with Internet access, some knowledge and common sense. You don\u2019t even need to hack anything; all of the services you need are already there and are 100% legal.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Rock started his research after an incident, when one of Australia\u2019s hospitals mistakenly \u2018killed off\u2019 200 patients. The idea was, that if something in electronic system occurs via accident or mistake, then you can do the same manually.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Hospital kills off 200 patients at once by mistake <a href=\"http:\/\/t.co\/rHkBwRuLu4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">http:\/\/t.co\/rHkBwRuLu4<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/t.co\/04QGasWLDx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/04QGasWLDx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Mirror (@DailyMirror) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DailyMirror\/status\/499816570261352448?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">August 14, 2014<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>An official indication of human\u2019s death is called death certificate. In many countries an application for this paper can be filed online. For instance, in USA they use a web service called Electronic Death Registration System (EDRS). To create this paper, you need to login to the EDRS as a doctor.<\/p>\n<p>To register on this service you need to enter some information to verify that you are a doctor including: your name, license number and address printed on your license. With that said, there is another option via\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mbc.ca.gov\/breeze\/license_verification.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">online service (at least in California), where you can find all of this information<\/a>. Simply put, you can login to ESDR as a Californian doctor, at any moment with no problems at all.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4997\" src=\"https:\/\/media.kasperskydaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2015\/08\/05103740\/kill-all-humans-1.jpg\" alt=\"kill-all-humans-1\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"><\/p>\n<p>Another person involved in the process of drawing up a death certificate is a funeral director. Curiously, in some states (and some countries such as UK or Australia) you don\u2019t need any special schooling or certifications to become one. Just file an application and wait for confirmation \u2014 and boom \u2013 you\u2019re a funeral director.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4998\" src=\"https:\/\/media.kasperskydaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2015\/08\/05103739\/kill-all-humans-2.jpg\" alt=\"kill-all-humans-2\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"><\/p>\n<p>Of course, you need to know how to fill in death certificate properly. And\u00a0<s>there\u2019s an app<\/s>\u00a0there\u2019re guides for it, both for doctors and funeral directors. A simple Google search, and all the information you need is at your fingertips. And that is basically it, though you need to do some additional movements for will and probate fulfillment. Similarly this is also very doable.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4999\" src=\"https:\/\/media.kasperskydaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2015\/08\/05103737\/kill-all-humans-3.jpg\" alt=\"kill-all-humans-3\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"><\/p>\n<p>One of the nicest things about \u2018death services\u2019 is that these websites often have a special button for mass death registration. This function was initially designed for managing disaster mortality and things like that, but can be used for virtual \u2018mass murders\u2019 by anyone who wants to play the part of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/02bwfcV2h9A\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bender Rodriguez<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/McMannofthepeop\/status\/589117758861869056\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/McMannofthepeop\/status\/589117758861869056<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Inverse process \u2014 creating a birth \u2014 is very similar, and does not require nine months. It\u2019s actually easier to give virtual birth than to make someone virtually dead. Firstly, you don\u2019t need a funeral director in this case. Secondly, instead of a doctor you can login as a midwife. Of course all necessary information about midwives can be found on the above mentioned Californian website and similar services in other countries.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-pullquote\"><p>#DefCon23: How to kill a human with a keyboard<\/p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkas.pr%2Feq3S&amp;text=%23DefCon23%3A+How+to+kill+a+human+with+a+keyboard\" class=\"btn btn-twhite\" data-lang=\"en\" data-count=\"0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Tweet<\/a><\/blockquote>\n<p>There\u2019re plenty of reasons why someone would kill or give birth to another person.
