I found the caption misleading. This article describes the dreadful ramifications of error(s) in a complex IT system. What it falls short of are details on the hows.


It was from the article, not sure how its misleading.

Its pretty much the biggest tech scandal in the news right now.

Actually the article has been posted since 2 years ago, but didn't get much discussion until recently.

Because it wasn't a software glitch. Probably such misleading headline has been chosen to help Fujitsu regain some of its share value.
