The Coming Quantum Apocalypse + Other Headlines

The End of Privacy: Big Quantum is Watching

In a Saturday 7 post back in February, I mentioned how Microsoft and Google had recently been touting their breakthroughs in quantum computing, which I believe will make it possible for a single authority like the Antichrist to exert unprecedented control over global systems.

Now Wired Magazine is warning about what they are calling Q-Day, “the day someone builds a quantum computer than can crack the most widely used forms of encryption.”

From the article:

These math problems have kept humanity’s intimate data safe for decades, but on Q-Day, everything could become vulnerable, for everyone: emails, text messages, anonymous posts, location histories, bitcoin wallets, police reports, hospital records, power stations, the entire global financial system.

According to their description, it will be an apocalyptic global event.
