I think I see where you are coming from and had, I think, a similar feeling.
This class of attack sits in that “uncanny valley” of:
1) possibly easy to spot when looked for in the right way [edit: to use the QC analogy: search for classical algorithms which are easily broken]
2) totally systemic across almost all currently deployed technology
is that what you mean?
- macawfish 9y agoYes, definitely, that's the kind of thing I'm thinking about, especially #2. Whereas a lot of exploits are happening with updateable software, it's rare that hardware gets hit so hard. This stuff hit on a deeper level. I hope I don't offend anyone too badly here with this medical analogy, but it's like finding out you have a bad flu vs. finding out you have Parkinson's. Or, it's like seeing someone in a different light for the first time... maybe you've known them for decades, but all of the sudden, you see them in this completely different way.
