Reminds me of when the KGB and the CIA tried to use knowledge of the sexual exploits of Indonesia's president Sukarno to blackmail him. Instead of falling in line, he told them to release what they had so his countrymen could be impressed by his sexual prowess. The KGB went as far as having a group of their agents pose as flight attendants to engage him in an orgy, which they secretly filmed. When confronted with the film, he asked if KGB for extra copies for him to take home.
