I think part of the problem arises from the fact that to a degree the help was actually solicited. The FBI attempted to crowdsource some picture/data collation. Of course, we knew the moment we heard that it would mean inevitable false accusations. It was the internet's collective job to gather as many resources as they could for the FBI; the problem was when they began drawing conclusions from it, which they really had no place doing.
