My Way News - Swiss Votes to Use 'Unbreakable' Code
AP reports: "A new 'unbreakable' encryption method will be keep votes safe for citizens in the Swiss canton (state) of Geneva in the country's upcoming national elections, officials said Thursday. The city-state will use quantum technology to encrypt election results as they are sent to the capital on Oct. 21, said Nicolas Gisin of the University of Geneva."

Comment: While I'm not sure this technology will be not available to consumers for quite some time, it does seem like it's time for a PGP for the 21st Century.
