Also the ability to crack any of our current encryption almost instantly...

Quantum entanglement is different than quantum computing.

[-] oyo@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Not exactly; entanglement is a critical element of quantum computing for the encryption and decryption referenced.

[-] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Not what I understand. The encryption referenced is about having an immutably certain shared data source from entanglement that can be used as encryption/decryption input. Quantum computing does promise to crack current encryption technology in the future.
