How Do You Usually Approach a Person Search?

I’ve recently been thinking a lot about the concept of person search whether it’s trying to reconnect with an old friend, researching a professional contact, or simply trying to verify someone’s identity. It’s surprising how easy (and sometimes hard) it can be to find information online nowadays. So I’m curious how do you approach a person search? Do you rely on: Public records or social media platforms? Specialized databases? Old-school methods like mutual connections and alumni directories? More importantly i’d love to hear your thoughts on the ethical boundaries of looking people up. For example: Where do you draw the line between curiosity and intrusion? Are there types of information you consciously avoid? How do you verify if what you’re finding is accurate or up-to-date? Let’s talk strategies, tips, and ethics whether you’re doing a light search or something more in depth.

When it comes to accuracy i treat everything like Wikipedia: trust, but verify. Multiple sources, timestamps and even tone of writing help me decide if it’s reliable. Context is everything.
