What's the point of encryption? It's to protect data for some time, not forever. All encryption can (and will) be broken. I was there when Md5 became obsolete and was replaced with Sha-1 ( made by the nsa) which is now also obsolete. I was there when all 8 letters password on windows could be cracked in minutes. And discovered that windows kept a copy of the hash locally, unless your password was +15chars. Don't blindly trust end to end encryption.
