" It is not the fault of the victim that the person they initially trusted betrayed that trust. "
You're not listening. Again, there's a difference between saying "this was your fault" and saying "you exposed yourself to risk, and the dice didn't go your way."
"How about instead of teaching people to be afraid to trust we teach people not to betray that trust?"
For the same reason that we teach people not to run into traffic AND teach drivers to look out for random pedestrians running out into traffic: Because there are TWO points of failure in the equation. Pretending there's only one is not going to help anyone. Why do you insist on a false dichotomy of "either/or" when, clearly, both approaches are called for?
"Teach people not to betray each other." Human society and psychology are not remotely as black and white or as simple as you're suggesting.

There's always been a risk of sensitive materials being shared with unauthorized parties, the only difference now is how many. I'm also not sure that "warning people of very obvious risks" constitutes victim blaming. If you can do something to easily avoid a problem and you didn't do it, well, that should be a lesson for your ass. There's a difference between "it's your fault" and "you unwisely accepted risk."
Don't loan money you can't afford to lose, don't say things you don't want remembered and don't share photos you don't want loose.
