A British drug dealer was nicked and sentenced to 13 years prison (he may be let out after 6,5 years if he behaves well), after he uploaded a photo of a block of Stilton cheese held in his palm to Encrochat (the resolution of the photo was sufficient to identify his fingerprints and associate him with other drug deals!)

Oh and I just noticed there's actually a Russian movie "Пан или пропал" (2014) based on a humorous crime novel by Joanna Chmielewska, a Polish writer.
Next on my watch list, then...
Just noticed a funny Easter egg in "The Interview" (2014), at 1:38 they're escaping in a tank that has "Пан или пропал" written on it. The phrase literally means "Either lord, or loser", a proverbial expression describing a risky choice ending in only one of two extreme outcomes.
The word "пан" (pan) originates from Polish where it's mostly uses as a formal variant of "you" (a bit like "sir") and since Soviet times it's mostly used with a smirk.
