I think it would be kind of interesting, if there was some form of end to end encryption for forums, so that an application downloads the topics / posts, decrypts them, and then, someone reads them.
It would be like the per-forum password feature which is fairly common among systems, but posts are stored encrypted and are only ever decrypted on the client for maximum security.

Also, so that an adversary doesn't inject malicious javascript somehow, the application would likely have to be audited, versioned and updated on the user's command to stop the server from telling it to do things it shouldn't.

It could be a potential way to store sensitive information.
