Just realized that this also seems on topic for this list (since it's
directly relevant to e2e messaging, especially forms like OTR).
So, I understand that QM algos can pretty much dismantle all popular
asymmetric encryption algos with enough q-bits, but I haven't thought hard
enough to see if they also can be used to compromise communications that
used DH to do PFS underneath the initial handshake.
Thanks, Greg
From my practical experience:
DH-with-Authentication, if done right, is 100% secure against all attacks.
QM crypto is nothing but BS from some snake-oil-sellers.
I mean for online-authentication there is no need for QM crypto.
But, it might be different for cracking PKI, ie. the RSA trash.
