Imagine you didn't like a fag moderator of a subreddit because they held a vote and then pissed all over it.
You send an email from an anonymous, one use account in Finland. The body of the email reads something like: "As per your request, these photographs are even more explicit than before. Honestly, how much pineapple can you demand on your pizza? Passphrase is the same as last time."
As an attachment you include a large file of random data.
This file can not be decrypted, but it is indistinguishable from a high security encryption method.
One anonymous tip later, the file will be seized and the faggot mod will be asked for the passphrase. Either they deliver it or they go to prison.
Despite the fact the guy is an actual pedophile in this case, one concern this brings up is LOSING the password in the event the feds demand it.
Or never having the passphrase.

This tactic works on anyone you don't like.
