If you could break the PKI(Public key infrastructure) would you..
(a) publish a paper on it.. get famous.. and close down the RSA?
or
(b) quietely snoop over the world's conversations.. and possibly break banks' security systems to make billions?
If (a) is not the chosen option.. why would anyone publish such a result, even if they found one?
