Answer
Facebook uses a combination of public and private sources to determine when someone has died. The company looks at obituaries, funeral announcements, and other public records to find out when someone has died. If the company can’t find any public information about the person’s death, it will reach out to the person’s friends and family to see if anyone knows about the death.

There is no one right answer to this question, as it depends on the relationship between the deceased and the poster, as well as the cultural context. Some people might post about the death on social media, while others might choose to keep their grief private. Some might reach out to friends and family members of the deceased, while others might not know how to or feel uncomfortable doing so. Ultimately, it’s up to the individual to decide what feels right in that moment.
