> As far as i can see there is quite a lot of "quantum safe" encryption so what kind of historical data exists lying around with lots of value? I find this statement funny, not at your expense. In public discourse, speak about quantum encryption too early – such as within the last five years – and the common opinion on say Stack Overflow/HN/Reddit/among the outer circles of cybersecurity is "don't model a threat before you get there". Now apparently there is a lot of quantum-safe encryption - not true, NIST barely came to a standard in the last year, which failed quickly, even though there are quantum-resistant strategies which have gained tentative adoption in companies like Signal and MullvadVPN. But interesting that this is a perception someone has now, and suddenly quantum computers are being put under popular scrutiny again, perhaps driven by advancements in inner circles and higher tiers of tech. It's tiresome to see these discourses out of sync
