| However, I still don't believe that quantum cryptography can buy you | anything but research funding (and probably easier lawful intercept | because end-to-end encryption is so much harder).
Not to attack you personally - I've heard the same comments from many other
people - but this is a remarkably parochial attitude.
Quantum crypto raises fundamental issues in physics.
But we aren't physicists.
Hey!
It isn't research any more. There are companies trying to *sell this*.
Please don't blame the physicists for that. It is still research, but someone is selling tincture of quantum physics in their snake-oil bottles. Too bad that may poison the market for a really useful development a few years from now, but it does help shake the money tree for research. And physics can use every dime it can get right now.
