Is it Wrong to Unfollow a Person on Social media After They Pass Away?

Written by on April 10, 2025

I was talking with DJ Ease the other day after I found out Instagram doesn’t let you follow more than 7,500 people.
So I had to go through and unfollow a bunch of accounts—and while doing that, I came across a few people who had passed away. Some I knew personally, others I didn’t.

As I started unfollowing those who had passed, I felt this weird sense of guilt. Like… is this wrong?
I asked DJ Ease, and he was like, “Nah, it’s not like they’re going to feel some type of way.”

But it still got me thinking—
Is it wrong to unfollow people who’ve passed away?
