and also... i read that 'any' tampering whatsoever with the optics holding/being the key, is going to break the cryptic armour. I would be interested to know what that 'any' actually is. Does that include routing ? tunneling ? Or even worse... NAT ? Looks like ipv6 is going to make it after all than huh.;-)
I'm also concerned with some articles headlining 'Hackers be aware... quantum blah blah'. I don't think most hackers even care about cyphers and computing power to break keys. All you need to do, is send an e-mail with a small vbscript attached to it (and a xxx screensaver) to capture keystrokes... that's it !
I think what we'd really need, is to educate every computer user in the world about passwords/passphrases and their importance...
