        gollark: Being able to break the encryption on stuff is less obvious and can be done in bulk on intercepted data.
        gollark: I'm an expert on this because I read *multiple* Wikipedia articles.
        gollark: People are not idiots, and realized that that could be an issue, so there's work on designing asymmetric encryption schemes (symmetric is mostly safe as far as I know, except for Grover's algorithm) which cannot be broken by quantum computing.
        gollark: Which breaks RSA and elliptic curve stuff.
        gollark: Quantum computers *cannot* do anything ever a trillion times faster, or something ridiculous like that; they can accelerate some algorithms, for example factoring integers fast and something something discrete logarithm problem.
