Look, I’m no expert here in anyway, but this just feels like Star Trek level technobabble.

Quantum computers are real. You can get some on Amazon, no joke. People think it is only a matter of time before they are big enough to tackle the real world encryption.

It is extra worrying that once they are ready, they break encryption used today if someone happens to have stored some encrypted, assumed to be safe, traffic.

So better encryption now should resist breaking for years, as long as the information is relevant. And better protocols are needed now.

Oh, I know quantum computers are real, but idk about buying them on Amazon. Don’t they take like warehouse level of cooling to be able to run?

Still, brain off it comes off as gibberish.

You can buy quantum computer hours right now from amazon, check it out :) It is used for research.

And it is not so crazy complex to get liquid helium and some below cooling. Even small labs have it, I worked with one like that.

“If we add quantum as a prefix they’re sure to fall for it!”
