Quantum computers need vastly fewer resources than thought to break vital encryption

“While CRQCs certainly do pose a threat to blockchain-based technologies based on classical ECC algorithms, they are just one of many systems in our modern world that need to transition quickly to PQC,” LaMacchia said, referring to post-quantum cryptography. “Especially when reading some of the policy proposals at the end of the white paper, I am just dumbfounded that Google is focused on policy frameworks for solving problems that seem unique to the cryptocurrency space (e.g., salvaged digital assets) and not the general threat that CRQC pose to all our systems that use public-key cryptography.”

Sounds like they are trying to suck up to the current US administration.

Countries and societies that value liberal democracy and believe in freedom (in the real sense, not the American polemical sense) really need to get rid of all American technology services and platforms.
