Sure, everyone is talking about how it might prove --or at least strongly indicate--involvement in sex with minors, money laundering, etc. But looking at what is already coming out, I think there's also an element of just straight up humiliation/embarrassment. People of power/influence/wealth referring to him as stupid, etc. (Assuming he is aware that this kind of stuff is in there.)
