Unless you're suggesting that the rate of rapes is invariant between different societies, or that the rate of hacking is the same between different platforms, sure you can as is demonstrated by varying degrees of success across geographic and sociological areas or phone platforms. Both are completely physically possible. Maybe what you mean is society isn't willing to do either (and the hacking phones part will improve over time as we eventually move away from passwords and other weak security mechanisms to things far better) because of resources or whatever reason.

Of course take appropriate precautions, I didn't say not to, I said that the question isn't the right one to ask, and after someone's been victimized is definitely not the time to ask it.

The focus should be on the problem, not the victim.
