With almost every technological advance, destructive power arrives long before the protective powers. It's much easier to destroy something with a nuclear weapon than it is to build a nuclear power plant. Likewise, we arrived at muskets before the combustion engine. Disinformation is much cheaper (and profitable for media companies surviving on outrage driven clicks) than delivering self-verifiable empirical information. This will change in time.
