passive income

Income that requires minimal effort to maintain, allowing you to earn money while you focus on other activities, like sleeping or hanging out with friends. Often associated with investments, online content, or businesses that generate revenue without constant involvement.
My Youtube upload for the MP3-CD titled 'I Was Too Young To Watch Threadpool' hit 433 views within its first 18 hours? It feels like "passive income", where the number of views continuously increases whilst I sleep, go to college, do college assignments, hang out with friends, travel, etc. etc

passive aggressive income 

An income stream that was supposed to be easy but turns out to be hard work and difficult to extract money from due to reluctant or uncooperative people involved who try to avoid paying
My rental house is a great source of passive aggressive income; my tenants are 5 weeks behind on rent, yet they keep complaining and demanding I pay to fix little holes in the fly screens made by their cats, then the agent tried to double bill me for fees as well, I have to work so hard chasing this money that it doesn't seem worth it.

Passive-Aggressive Strategic Incompetence 

A deliberate and calculated behavior exhibited by an organization or its members, particularly law enforcement agencies, where they feign misunderstanding or lack of capability to fulfill a legal or formal request for information. This tactic is employed as a means of evasion to avoid accountability, transparency, or the disclosure of information that could implicate the organization in illegal activities or misconduct. It is characterized by an outward appearance of cooperation or innocence, masking an intentional effort to obstruct justice or the rightful access to information. This behavior is passive-aggressive in nature because it avoids direct confrontation or refusal while actively working against the requester's aims to uncover truth or obtain justice.

This definition encapsulates the manipulative and obstructive nature of the behavior, emphasizing its purpose as a strategy to evade legal and moral responsibilities.
The police department's refusal to provide the requested documents, coupled with their pretense of not understanding the clear terms of the FOIA request, is a classic case of passive-aggressive strategic incompetence designed to shield themselves from scrutiny.
