Internetis jäi silma juba järgmine "NSA-story":
NSA seeks to build quantum computer that could crack most types of encryption
In room-size metal boxes ­secure against electromagnetic leaks, the National Security Agency is racing to build a computer that could break nearly every kind of encryption used to protect banking, medical, business and government records around the world.

According to documents provided by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, the effort to build “a cryptologically useful quantum computer” — a machine exponentially faster than classical computers — is part of a $79.7 million research program titled “Penetrating Hard Targets.” Much of the work is hosted under classified contracts at a laboratory in College Park, Md.

Sama uudist märkasin ka kohalkus Delfis: NSA ehitab väidetavalt kvantarvutit, mis suudab murda enamiku krüpteeringutest

Edit: kaevasin välja ka paar eelmise aasta linki, kus juba sellest samast värgist juttu.
PS: Ning see Wired-i link peaks olema siis kõige esimene teemakäsitlus:

Riiklikud superarvutid on kogu aeg olemas olnud. Unix on 40 aastat vana juba.

See Snowdeni leke on ainult pinnavirvendus selle kõrval, et kui kaugele on nende aastatega lennanud USA Voyager.

Tavakodanikul ei ole selle uudisega midagi teha, sest aes'iga paroole krüptides on paroolid OK aga need paroole vajavad serverid aga on AGA-AGA.
