No one said they deserved to be harassed. OP pointed out that harassment is a widely known possible result of giving personal information to strangers on the internet. I don't blame them for getting harassed, but I do think they and others should look at what happened as a cautionary tale. I'm aware some consider that victim blaming and that goes back to my point that I don't see victim blaming as being 100% bad. I also don't really think it's victim blaming to begin with but most people seem to think it is. If my neighbour left their house unlocaked and they were robbed, I would be sorry for them that they were robbed, I'd also feel sorry for them because they would know they put themselves at a much higher and unnecessary risk and I imagine that they would feel a lot of guilt. Not every stupid thing people do has negative consequences but it isn't surprising when they do.

If there's an epidemic of robberies in your city, and robberies are happening left and right, and your neighbor was an idiot who got robbed, and the city held a town hall meeting to discuss all the robberies, and you got up and told the city council that the real problem was that your neighbor was an idiot, then in that situation, you would be the asshole.

DA
Actually, no. Especially if it is widely known that there's an epidemic of robberies, people will have exponentially less sympathies for someone who threw caution to the wind and, say, refused to check up on his house's security measures despite being situation in a robbery hotspot.

Did you read my post

However little sympathy you have for the person in question, that should not be the focus when you're discussing the broader question of home robberies
