News: Quantum Computing is Bigger than the Internet

So yeah, I think this is a piece of deluded propaganda.

Quantum computing already exists, and the author of this piece knows it.  That's a lie of omission.  The NSA is totally in charge of research on shit like this.  I read that in a cryptography book written for kids. 

So, it is totally being used to compromise security systems and build evil weapons.  Super viruses or super soldiers, the two examples of evil outcomes of quantum computing given in the piece, these are nothing compared to destroying the universe or something less cataclysmic like ending humanity.  The author of this piece knows all of this, too.

And then there's the part that the author might not know.  Quantum computing will change society, and what will the outcome be?  That's just a sliver, quantum computing might make the music that changes everyone's lives.  But it will probably be used for mass murder.  This is the reason I don't like to read the news.  People, especially powerful people, need to take the risks of technology seriously.  Let's talk about pollution, society, medicine.  Don't do it in bullet points.
