They say that most accidents are a sequence of several failures, but from what's in this article it sure seems to me like 100% Boeing's fault.

If the only maintainence problem with this aircraft was a broken sensor, then that is almost irrelevant because sensors can break during flight too.

If it's really true that a mere broken sensor can cause the computer to ram the aircraft into the sea, then someone at Boeing really fucked up. Where are the redundancies and sanity checks?
