minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 year agoAren’t the normal encryption algorithms used today quantum resistant anyways (like AES256)? I’m all for stronger privacy and security, but this just seems like a gimmick, unless I’m missing something.

minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-21 year agoYeah, and since symettric encryption is usually used for file encryption and stuff like that, I honestly don’t see the point in this.
