They’re probably the only things that “create” information in the sense that you can always grab another slice. Thank you delicious pi!

I don’t see why not, it’s just numbers, which is all we store most data as.
You could use it as a source of pseudorandom numbers to encrypt an infinite data steam, e.g. we’ll encrypt using e, starting at position 40468.
Randomness is the opposite of information.
It’s irrational, which just appears random (which is why I said pseudorandom).
You don’t want your encryption keys to be predictable.
