I know that I can simply make my own private certificate authority that only I and my family trust. But is there some public provider like letsencrypt that is in a free-er part of the world than the US?

    Quantum computers only threaten asymmetric ciphers, so every symmetric cipher is still safe, not just one-time-pads but things like AES and ChaCha20 aren’t affected at all.

      Ah. That’s a misunderstanding on my part, and a good news story. Still don’t want to wake up tomorrow and see a published AES break, though.
