A summary of why encryption wouldn't have prevented General Petraeus from getting caught. Like the quote: "If you think cryptography is the solution to your problem, you either don't understand cryptography or you don't understand your problem."

Siegfried Schlunk on 27 Nov 12

Quantum computing has teased us with its potential for some time, but we won't be seeing qubits in our laptops anytime soon. However, science has also sought to leverage quantum physics in cryptography, and a recent breakthrough will allow for quantum encryption over fiber optic cables already in use.
