True but I doubt I'm special enough to be the only one who has had something similar happen

Likely not, I've read extensively and your story is echoed in many of them.

It seems you clicked the wrong link. Personally I do not explore the web in the same way I used to.

I've been to some very dark places and I've made sure never to go back.

I'm keeping everything that could actually deanonymize me quiet

No problem, but if someone out there was really "onto you" no matter if it was just a "warning" you can be sure that no amount of anonymity online is going to keep you safe either.

Good thing it's just a burner account then no link back to my identity

Good for you.

Everyone I've known who used the dark web just uses it to buy drugs. No problems for them. You must have delved too deep.

I did and will never again do a deep dive on the darkweb.
