@pepper0@aus.social It's not though. The encryption still hasn't been broken with conventional computers.
Routing can be disrupted, but actual interception of traffic from the keys & decryption of it requires computational or cryptographic feats so far not displayed.
Also practical/useful QPUs are sci-fi at moment.

@lispi314@udongein.xyz @pepper0@aus.social QPU's a joke - so far no quantum computer has managed to factor a number bigger than 21 and it seems there was cheating used to factor a number as big as 21. Yes, 21, which you can factor by hand; 21 / 2 = 10.500000 (does not divide round by 2 prime). 21 / 3 = 7 (divides round by 3 prime). 3*7 = 21
