    BAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA!

    Are you kidding me?

    Don’t you remember that the laws of mathematics don’t apply to Australia

    And whatever crypto tech is enabled is irrelevant. The Australian government has already enacted laws that can force anybody in Australia to backdoor, hack or whatever to access anything they want.

    Anyways, it’s just obvious that you access the data BEFORE it is encrypted. Quantum encrypt/E2EE it however you want after I already have the data.

    Australia’s chief cyber security agency has decided local orgs should stop using the tech that forms the current cryptographic foundation of the internet by the year 2030 – years before other nations plan to do so – over fears that advances in quantum computing could render it insecure.

    The proposal deprecates certain standards by 2030 – among them the RSA algorithm – and disallows them by 2035.

    I wish Australia were this forward-thinking in other respects (like banning ICE vehicles), but this is pretty cool. UQ is one of the world’s leading research institutions in quantum computing so it does make sense.
