> Shouldn't builders construct houses that are safe enough?

Yes, which is why I mentioned building codes. I suppose "safe enough" is where the disagreement is.

Should you be prosecuted if a thief smashes your window and steals something you borrowed from a friend?

How incredibly irresponsible of you, to have a window in your home! When will we take security seriously? It is your fault that you were a victim of a crime and you should go to jail for it. /s

How much effort do you expect from the police if you gave keys to your house to everyone who ever visited. Or if you teach your butler to follow orders as long as they are prefaced with "dahfizz said ..."

That is the current level of software security. That's why I have a joyful smile anytime I read of another hack, because maybe people will start caring about security.

Then why use "victim blaming"?
