The TLS protocol is modified while maintaining backward compatibility on the client and server side. We thus wish to participate in the effort to generalize the use of QKD on the Internet. We used our protocol for a video conference call encrypted by QKD. Finally, we analyze the performance of our protocol, compa…

I would report these signs themselves as prima-facie, irrebuttable proof of a thing that disparages American values.
Imagine Manzinar - a concentration camp into which Japanese heritage US Citizens were moved during WW-II with no due process, no equal protection, and a complete and irrational abuse of American values.
