    Hi does anyone think quantum computers are a real possibility? - if it happens then your computer will become a box of infinite parallel universes where all possiblities exist and happen - what implications do you think that will have for security?

    for example if you use a sandbox then a hacker could simply choose an alternate version of reality where the sandbox isn't installed.

    presumably also you will be running a machine where your machine is both uninfected and infected at the same time? :D

    your thoughts on this most curious of curiosities please.

    shrodinger's cat is also most welcome to comment on the proceedings :D

    It shouldn't be a problem because you just stay one parallel ahead of anything you don't want. And if it is really capable of infinite parallels just choose one of your own creation.
