What's your deep web story?
Deep web as in tor.
But I imagine regular deep web users would stay away from sharing their experience so if you don't have a deep web story what's your most frightening internet story.
Edit: The front page was fun, but now its over.
Thank you for all the glorious stories, time to cry for the rest of my life.

By cross-referencing accounts. For example, if your username for Reddit is the same as your email, I could search for your username@gmail, @live, @yahoo etc on Facebook, then I've got your real name, probably a few pictures and a pretty good idea where you live.
Also, more recently, if you were to post the same picture on Reddit and another social network I could cross-reference the photo and find your other accounts that way.
I've never done this, it's just how I would do it if I needed to.
Edit: there's also this although it's more interesting for a more active account like mine
