The parent's central point isn't that the the victim is to blame here. It's that this sort of harassment is very much possible even without facebook existing.

The parent's central point isn't that the the victim is to blame here. It's that this sort of harassment is very much possible even without facebook existing. Being a victim does not make one immune to criticism. Agreeing to produce material that you don't want to be publicized does carry a risk. Not talking about this risk and shoving it under the carpet isn't going to help solve the problem. It's very much relevant here, as that is one key reason that enabled this whole drama. It may be increasingly normal for people to produce such material, but as shown by the article it's also increasingly common that this material is abused. Being more careful with production and storage of such material is a perfectly valid strategy to avoid this type of abuse. It shouldn't be ignored just because it can also be viewed as a mistake by a victim.
