Want to find information about someone lost in space Written by M6.net
Want to find information about someone lost in space and time? The Internet’s here: Just make your search one that doesn’t invade someone’s privacy.Can you remember a friend or relative’s name that has disappeared from Earth? You haven’t had contact with them in decades, but now you want to find out where they are so you can get in touch. In old days this would have been nearly impossible, but now things are different. There are many different ways to find people lost in ‘space and time’ on Internet. Some are free and some cost, but amount of personal information you can find about any individual in world is astounding. Besides simple International White Pages web sites, there are many companies that are masters of locating personal information. Say you used to live overseas when you were a child and you want to see how your best friends from primary school are doing in their lives. You can find out their address, email, and phone number, even about their personal history, like whether or not they’ve got a criminal record! Some might perceive this as an invasion of privacy, like ‘Big Brother’ in book ‘1984’, but if one’s intentions are true and positive, I think this can be great for finding buddies, loved ones, and relatives. Say you met a really nice person on your travels but you lost their address, as long as you’ve got their name there’s no reason their existence has to become only a memory. How about that old crush you had on that girl in High School? You can search them out and see their current marital status, and then if all looks good you can try and rekindle that old flame.
