Failed to understand "stumbled by posting"?
Does "stumbled by posting" mean "had troubles by posting"?
Context:
That was the attitude of many Bitcoin supporters, who accused Goodman of "doxing" Dorian Nakamoto, online slang for outing someone's true identity by posting revealing information about them. But arguably, that is another word for journalism. Newsweek stumbled by posting a picture of Nakamoto's house online with an unblurred car registration – within minutes of the story being posted, his full address had been traced.
