Something nobody's brought up is that computers 10 years in the future > will be able to easily brute-force today's encryption, so if you're feeling easy that nobody can read your plans to build a 15KT nuclear device and sell it for a million dollars, well, anyone saving that file for 10 years can read it retroactively.
Actually, that *has* been brought up on this list before. It is a little disconcerting to think that all your personal information "sent securely" over the internet will become public knowledge in 10-20 years. Or if not exactly public knowledge, at least known to the corporations and agencies slurping it all up today in preparation for the day when they can read it.
