And that kind of got a lot of people's attention.

And they're starting to look at going, well,

if encryption as we know it dies three years from now, what else is there in order to keep our secrets safe, in order to stay secure online?

We don't have an answer to that just yet.

There are like quantum safe encryption methods that traditional computers can do, but they're expensive and they're not well researched and stuff.

The scary thing for me

If you used an encryption algorithm, let's say in ancient times, and no one could crack it, but now we see like encrypted messages passed on in ancient Latin or something like that, and we figure out the code, we can read those historic messages.

It's like at the time the Germans were using the Enigma machine, no one could crack it.

But as long as they recorded what those messages were, at a later date when they cracked it, they could figure out what the messages were.

Yeah.

Retroactive decryption, basically.

Yeah.

Retroactive decryption.

Wow.

This is why we pay you the big bucks.

You know the big words.

So I guess what I'm scared of is like, okay, that weird message thread that you sent to the woman you're having an affair with.

Yes, it was encrypted.

Okay.

But if someone just stored the encrypted data, yes, they couldn't read it.
