If, by the time everybody's mother is using crypto, we are
still hitting a 56-bit barrier then not only will the "dark
side" have won, they'll be in the process of making us
look damn stupid.
Our goal: 256-bit crypto, worldwide, NOW!
Their goal: 256-bit PK crypto, worldwide, yesterday!
Unfortunately, grandma is going to have a hard time telling

have to worry: her Uncle Sammy has taken care of her
