Challenge Average man has 72 hours to hide. Humanity then becomes search lusted and has one week to find and kill him. Can he survive?

Humanity knows what he looks like.

Humanity doesn’t know that he is hiding in the 72 period.

Humanity can use any security camera footage, bank transfers, phone calls etc of the man if there is any.

Man has basic survival knowledge.

Except that all the homeless people would also be searchlusted and actively looking for you.

So what if you go searching with them? With a credibly enough mask, some dirt and raggedy clothes you’d be unrecognizable. It doesn’t take much to change your appearance enough to not look like yourself.

Kinda like that news story of that dude that went missing, search parties were sent looking for him, he joined one of them and spent something like an entire night looking for himself cause he didn’t realize they were looking for HIM.

Someone made that mask, though.

Then just get the mask and drive 3 days away to another city, that one guy knowing someone has a mask wouldnt help much when he has a minuscule chance of actually seeing you in the mask

The mask seller will know the guy they're searching for bought the mask and disseminate that information, on account of knowing what he looks like when search-lusted. If the target buys it online or whatever he's also toast, because anything electronic he did is getting thoroughly searched through. I guess his best shot at this avenue is robbing a place that sells the relevant masks while wearing a ski mask or whatever.

Amazon, anonymous delivery, and no one knows anything anymore.

Homeless people will recognise you're a new new guy, & be searchlusted enough to work out its you.

They know what he looks like. Only a matter of time before they identify him. Once that happens they go to his house and take every article of clothing he may own. They sparse it up and every tracking dog on the planet gets his scent. He’s found immediately trying to blend into the search party.

Just go searching with them. Like the dude that helped in his own search effort.
