This being a technical forum you need to substantiate that with some technical points like why the A330 is a unique problem.
How many other aircraft types, lomapaseo, have repeated problems with pitot probes icing up (or indeed, any other indicated airspeed difficulties) at altitude that you have heard about recently?

The latest incident with the referenced NWA A-330 has gotten the rapt attention of the FAA, you can be sure.
I would expect an emergency airworthiness directive to follow shortly.
