how to Find files on Mac Terminal

Question

there is a file I have to find, context.xml . I tried find / -name context.xml on terminal, but I got many Permission denied .

Then I tried sudo find / -name context.xml , and I was told to enter password. After entering that password, I still got many Operation not permitted .

I also tried to restart my Mac, then tried that two commands. But, still the same error. Could anyone help me out? Thanks.

Even if you do sudo, the Terminal application itself may not have sufficient privileges on newer versions of MacOS. See https://osxdaily.com/2018/10/09/fix-operation-not-permitted-terminal-error-macos/ for more details.
