Only a very specific and unfortunately common encryption protocol will be affected by quantum computing.
Prime factorization based encryption is hosed, Elliptic curve cryptography is already the promoted standard and it’s not susceptible to the same issue.
Oh please.

Yeah, I just discovered that on a different thread. Something of a relief, I admit.
If anyone’s curious, like I was, it’s about RSA encryption.
