[LINK] RFC: The Quantum Bug

[Rick Welykochy]

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8774

Abstract

    The age of quantum networking is upon us, and with it comes
    "entanglement": a procedure in which a state (i.e., a bit) can be
    transferred instantly, with no measurable delay between peers.  This
    will lead to a perceived round-trip time of zero seconds on some
    Internet paths, a capability which was not predicted and so not
    included as a possibility in many protocol specifications.  Worse
    than the millennium bug, this unexpected value is bound to cause
    serious Internet failures unless the specifications are fixed in
    time.
