Digital Hoarding

Digital hoarding is a term used to describe the act of hoarding material or information for a later date utilizing the space by saving, archiving or storing it in some kind of digital format.^1 Digital hoarders may collect emails, photos, articles, podcasts, or any type of computer files they believe they may want to revisit in the future.^2 The opportunity to hoard digitally is increasing due to the wide availability of digital materials (e.g. files, photographs, music, apps, etc) and the abundance of cheap storage.^3 There is evidence to suggest that we can become as strongly attached to non-physical as we do to physical possessions as they become part of our identity and our sense of self.^4 Fashion will also need to address digital hoarding in the near future as it introduces an increasing number of digital products: filters, digital assets, NFTs, and memberships.^5
