The bottom line is that if it is computable it will be computed, therefore
make it un-computable. As in one-time codepad ? There is nothing new about
this, those have been around for minimum 60 years afaik. Besides tempest
and such used on one of the ends. The only new thing is crypto companies
betting their maths against the speed with which entropy and other
people's math and computers catch up with their products imho. If they
catch up slowly then they have a good product which sort of auto-expires.
I like this as a business concept.
