Gathering info on a computer user without social engineering

[br3tt0]

Just googled myself and deleted a bunch of accounts and things

[ampakine]

Are you on shroomery as well and a few other forums for what appears to be reacreational drug users?
Your also appear to be a undergrad student at ********** too.

Yep. Some of the recreational drug forum accounts may not be mine though since ampakines are cognitive enhancing drugs that people on forums like that tend to be interested in.

I tried doxing a few people with youtube accounts for the fun of it but the problem is, they only seem to have youtube accounts with those usernames. They use very distinct usernames so when I google "intitle:username" I only get 1 hit which is their youtube profiles. All I can really do then is search through their youtube comments to see if they give away any leads. When you run into a dead end like that, is social engineering the only way to proceed?
