I remember reading about the air force buying a lot of ps3's back in the 2000s, and that just cemented to me that information is power and any government will do all they can to own as much of it as possible. IBM just published some quantum breakthrough[1] and my first thought was that it will be used by the military or intelligence agencies. Hopefully by the time this technology trickles down to more corrupt agencies the people will have caught up.
You might as well be talking about magic when it comes to quantum computing and me, I have no idea if that new openssh standard really does protect against a quantum computer trying to break it.
Wouldn't seeing the Air Force clamoring for commodity gaming hardware usually destined for a kid's bedroom be an inspiring example of equal access to technology?
