So it will be secure from everyone but them and those whom they sell it to (i.e. anyone and everyone)?
Privacy doesn't get more private than that.

A study of the re-use of code from over twenty thousand Java projects on GitHub discovered that almost 30% of them might be involved in potential code borrowing and almost 10% of them could potentially violate original licenses. I was going to give it back!

So how does this affect my plan to put every permutation of every possible line of code on a hard drive, and release it into the public domain?

Google's TCMalloc can be used as a replacement for C and C++ default memory allocators to provide greater efficiency at scale and better support for parallelism, says Google. Does it automatically insert ads into your heap?

Since the Google coding standard forbids using exceptions, I wonder what it does when the heap runs out of memory...

Two programmer-musicians wrote every possible MIDI melody in existence to a hard drive, copyrighted the whole thing, and then released it all to the public in an attempt to stop musicians from getting sued. Finally, I can hum Greensleeves without paying royalties (to royalty)

Update: they're being sued by everyone who ever wrote a song.

Now train an AI with the most popular songs ever released (maybe a list of 10,000 or so) to find all the melodies with a similar pattern - voila, you got a hit writing machine.

That's pretty much what happens now, without AI.

Losing data to an intruder is not a great look for a law enforcement partner. Good to know that security is so important for them

McAfee’s chief technology officer warned that it’s time for companies to start worrying about quantum computing attacks that can break common forms of encryption available today, even if quantum computing isn’t going to be practical for a while. Coming soon: McAfee Quantum Edition

With the amount of hacks and leaks currently, where no money is going, it makes little sense to warn for hypothetical hacks that get a hypothetical budget.
