Naturally, this has triggered a flurry of stories delving into the
Hawai’ian emergency management agency, and a rush of editors looking for
stock art to illustrate it, leading to an old AP photo being unearthed.
The photo depicts Jeffrey Wong, an operations manger, standing by his
workstation, which flutters with yellow post-its; one of them clearly
reads “PASSWORD: warningpoint2.”
The agency has confirmed that this is a real password for an “internal
application,” but adds that it “wasn’t for any major piece of software.”
