How did they manage to find my location when I was in a server and didn’t say a word? Can I also prevent others from doxing me in this manner?
You might end up on Doxxed if your personal information was exposed due to a data breach, sharing too much information online, or being targeted by someone who wants to reveal your private details. Always use strong privacy settings and be cautious about sharing personal information online.

Frequently, publicly available data obtained from persons search firms is what is used by doxxers instead than the information you voluntarily share online. Untrustworthy internet companies such as cyberbackgroundchecks.com and mylife.com collect data from voter records, real estate transactions, public records, social media posts, and other sources, then market that data to individuals interested in obtaining it.
All they need to know is your name and enough details about you to infer an estimated age, approximate location, phone number, or email address, and they can start their adventure.
