while i dont see quantum computers being hand-held, even in SR, i suspect that perhaps one can pipe whatever one wants to decrypt to some that are rentable online.
also, what if the current breed of encryption in SR is commersial. as in, its whats sold as private protection?
it will not slow down a dedicated hacker, hell, it may not even slow down the neighbors kids. but for the clueless or semi-clueless consumer its gold.
