  Just assume part of the ASCII-art chars have been made invisible, whereas if you would in-hide them all it would look (more or less) like so:
  
  ```
   ____   ____   ___
  | ___| /  __| /_  )
  | _|   | (     / /
  |____| \____| /___|
  
  ```
  
  I trust it’s clear then what the answer to your question actually is:
  `EC2` … Get it now?
