A hand holding a palm-sized pamphlet under pink-ish lighting:

STOP DOING QUANTUM CRYPTOANALYSIS
- DECADES of research and billions in funding, yet the largest number a ~~quantum computer~~ quantum physics experiment has ever factorized remains a terrifying 21
- The keep calling it a 'processor,' but it's actually a refrigerated probability sculpture they beg to act like it is a NAND gate for just half a microsecond -- fever dreams of the QUANTUM CULT
- The only countdown ticking towards Y2Q is researches counting the years of funding they can squeeze out of it
- Harvest now, decrypt later: because someday quantum computers will unlock the secret... that all the encrypted traffic was just web scrapers feeding AI model training
- Want to hack a database? No need to way for some Quantum Crypocalypse, just ask it politely with 'OR 1 = 1'

<weird diagram> ????

"Hello, I would like <weird formulas> to distil <weird formulas> please!"

They have played us for absolute fools
