Being Careful with the G-d's Name on The Computer - A Question for the Rabbi
How do Jews treat hard drive ROM if it contains permanently stored sacred information? Should it ever be deleted? Should a name of Gd be saved if it is encoded in data? We are careful with languages other than Hebrew. Why would the readable language a computer processes be any different? Some software is more powerful than other software when it comes to file deletion, which opens up a similar question: If the computer code for a word such as “Gd” enters a computer, is it okay to delete any of its sacred contents at all? Perhaps, computers should be made more sacred by programming them to remember every key stroke, or use picture recognition to save words such as Gd, such that Gd never ends up deleted. Even images of words in the refresh rate of a monitor could be saved. Why not?
