The good news is that the main thing that can safeguard you from abuse apart from genuine aspiration is doing your fuckin' dhamma homework, and it's never been easier to (1) get access to the dhamma and (2) parse through it with dedicated research. Genuine teachers from different lineages and sanghas as well as learned practitioners are most of the time an e-mail away.
A lot of people think that finding a guru is this anime-style destined thing where the enlightened teacher tailor-suits the teachings to you perfectly out of enlightened omniscience as if straight from a fucking sutta. And while that might happen in India to a fuckin Tulku or eventual Lamma, it is absolutely not the norm, specially not in the West.
So yeah, the world is kinda fucked and we do live in degenerate times but if there's any positive thing about the age of Aquarius is the availability of information, which should be an advantage to anyone with genuine aspiration.
