encraption 

To use so bad encryption that a bored individual could break it.

Secure messaging software called "Cryptocat" used to have so bad encryption that they started calling it encraption.

encraption 

To hide, unlink or obfuscate data in order to protect it.

Are you going to encrypt the bank details with DES?
Nah, I'll just use bit-shifting
Sounds like encraption to me

encraption 

It's the same as encryption, except it is in a case where the act of encryption the data does not actually protect anything, but instead prevents people interested in said harmless data from decoding / seeing it. A good example is a case where a satellite signal is enrypted, despite all data being public a few minutes later online.

It is a marge of the word "encryption" and "crap", to reflect the negative effects of said encryption.

As far as it is known, this word was first used by UHF-Satcom, and has stuck in the amateur satellite / radioamateur community since then,

SpaceX enabled encraption on Falcon-9's video dowlink.

Encryption 

An algorithm used to scramble data which makes it unreadable to everyone except the recipient. This is often used by e-commerce sites to secure credit card data. Secure sites use encryption.

The eDonkey p2p program is NOT protected with much encryption.

Rewrite the Encryptions 

South Park's hilarious send-up of bullshit fictional hacking in movies.

Kyle Broflowski can't log onto a message board, but is able to break through the access code by "rewriting the encryptions". He achieves this by typing furiously until the screen reads "Access Granted".

Kyle: Dammit, they've got an access code! I'll rewrite the encryptions!
(types furiously for 5 seconds)
Got it!
(Cartman and Stan look at him incredulously)

timed-release encryption

Encrypt into the future. Encrypt a message so that it will be decrypted only after a predetermined amount of time. It is an area of cryptography.

Timed-release encryption can be used for sealed-bid auctions, so that the bids will open at the end of the auction process.
