I can think of some Profiteering decks that might like this. You can take the big payout with less worry if you know you can quickly sink the BP.

But what deck is going to run more then one kind of 1 point agendas? Maybe Jinteki PE but then Jinteki already has a 1 point agenda that removes BP. I don't think this will see a lot of play.
Yeah, there quite a bunch of bad publicity cards out there, but as mentioned already, they mostly come at the 1 point agenda, and you certainly don't want an entire deck full of one point agendas.

Perhaps these can be introduced with a deck that uses Grim and Fenris as ice in order to counteract the bad publicity you provide to yourself by those means. They certainly are powerful ice and when you can take out the BP related to their downsides, it becomes quite a bit more appealing.
Oh, I just had a moment of true Fridge Horror. I always assumed when this agenda was stolen, that it was a matter of the runner discovering the corp's nefarious plan to provide replacement limbs for war veterans.

Nice job breaking it, hero.

Then I just noticed the flavor text. Let that sink in for a minute and ask yourself what the VP is really doing...
