We live in the technology age that you don't have to post much about yourself at all, for your information to still be out there on the dark web.

Even signing up for a website like Gmail, Facebook, or even your bank, information can possibly be stolen of breached. Your digital footprint can unfortunately be left by more people than just yourself.
