I asked bing chat AI, chatgpt4 (and crappy bard) and none could find such a story.
Chatgpt4:
"Unfortunately, I was not able to locate the specific story you mentioned about an individual whose Veracrypt or TrueCrypt passphrase was cracked by authorities. However, I did find information that suggests such an event is plausible.
Elcomsoft, a company that sells forensic software, announced that they had successfully cracked the latest version of Veracrypt, a fork of the now-discontinued TrueCrypt. This was achieved using an updated version of the Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor, which extracts on-the-fly encryption keys from a computer’s RAM. These keys, once captured, can be used to decrypt the hard drive without having to run brute force attacks1. This does not directly answer your question, but it provides some context on the potential vulnerabilities of Veracrypt.
I have searched through numerous sources, including Hacker News, but I could not find a story that matches your description. There are many reasons why this could be the case, such as the story being removed, incorrectly recalled details, or simply the limitations of my current search capabilities"
Btw why doesn’t Spotify have a feature for an ai to create genre playlists (or any mood playlists you want) from your liked songs? If you have thousands of songs it’s impractical to trawl through them creating playlists
