Somebody sent me a similar article ( http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7394350/ ). Something to the effect of what bracket said, throughout history there has been the rivalry between cryptographers and cryptoanalysts. Ciphers began being done on paper. There was caesar's code, polyalphabetical substitutions, computer powered ciphers... quantum cryptography is just another step up. I replied to the person with this:

Man is imperfect. The code is imperfect. The cipher can be cracked. It's transitive.

I find quantum computer highly interesting and look forward to seeing the results of its positive application.
