This video by Veritasium was pretty insightful on the topic.

But I guess we'll have to see about "store now, decrypt later"...

New assymetric algos exist and the new standard is worked on right now IIRC (it might have been done already).

At 17:42 in the vid he talks about now algorithms, specifically one with vectors. His explanation is pretty good and comprehensable for not mathematically gifted people
