>Then a Facebook and Twitter message was put up on the emergency management agency’s accounts. It was not until 8.24am that the corrective message was retweeted by the Hawaii governor, David Ige.
>The FCC report notes drily: “The governor has stated that he was unable to do this earlier because he did not know his Twitter password.”
Moral of the story: Memorize your Twitter passwords if you're going to take office. Or just use something easy, like '1234' or 'password'.
- tomkarlo 9y agoHaving an simple / easy-to-remember password on your Twitter account is a bad idea if you're a state governor. Or really, anyone. The right answer here is, use a complex password (that you likely won't remember), and/or 2FA, and use a password safe that's available on your mobile device.
- cableshaft 9y agoMy suggestion of a '1234' password wasn't serious. Although they should at least memorize their passwords and not offload that onto assistants or whatever, although what you suggested is better.
