    As I said earlier, the reality of the situation is that it’s pretty much impossible to guarantee any kind of security against a determined attacker today. What quantum computing brings is the ability to guarantee secure communications which is practically impossible to do with traditional computers, and eventually this tech will get small and cheap enough to be accessible to individuals.

    Ultimately, quantum computing is happening whether we like it or not. So, lamenting it seems kind of pointless to be honest. The cat is out of the bag, and there is a lot incentive to develop this technology.
