Use comments on social media platforms for botnet command and control.
Convert commands or data exfiltration to base64, then encrypt, then turn into sentences.
If you have a piece of base64 data that's like TM0CwM3iFxUVjmI, you could turn it into a text comment like this: Timothy Metal 0.345 Circle with Multiple 3,464 intelligent Foxtrot Ultra Valley jazz make Iridescent. Just turn the characters into words, just randomly picked from a dictionary file.
It looks like nonsense but it wouldn't be detected as base64, could get past spam filters, etc.
