I'm not sure that reviewing what went wrong and how to prevent that in the future is victim-blaming. Problems happen, and sometimes you need to change the way you do things to prevent problems in the future. Victim-blaming would be telling a victim to change when they really shouldn't need to. It's always a trade-off between security and usability, and in the case of the OP, he should have leaned more towards security. Did OP cause this? No, but OP could have prevented this. Is that victim-blaming? I don't think so.
>[T]hat doesn't really address the fundamental problem.
The fundamental problem of human error is unfixable. Human error can be mitigated through more robust systems, such as separate staging and production environments. Is encouraging more robust protection victim-blaming? I don't think that it is.
