 In this I fully agree with  @pkt

 @HunterBeast can you elaborate? 
 Time to start hanging swamp overlords 
 We can always stay ahead of quantum computing by upping the encryption standards and complexity. (i.e., Have faith that our "geeks" will be able to outwit any potential governmental threat to privacy)

The issue really is whether the government will outlaw such standards...(and even more interesting will be how they might try to enforce such a ban).

The ONLY reason for a government to be anti-encryption is because they are totalitarian. (Don't be fooled by the "well terrorists use it" argument). 
 Thank God Bitcoin has brilliant minds like Peter's that help us grasping those things  
 This is how I feel about the Rust programming language 
 yes, they like to make that claim even though nobody has even proven that quantum computers can actually do schnorr's algorithm, which supposedly bypasses the discrete logarithm problem 
 Simplex uses precisely the scheme that Peter mentions, complementing traditional encryption with post-quantum algorithms.
