I want to agree. It is not "failure" per see. Why should it fail on such a massive scale when all efforts were supposed to have been made to make it work.

Why is this being addressed as IT "failure" and not "sabotage"?. I would think failure is when a system "fails" to function according to its intended or programmed purpose and not when its "functioning" is interfered with so as to derail it from performing the set task.
