There are solutions currently in development, but as far as adoption goes, most sites won't use them until there is a real need.
Looking back 10 years ago, even HTTPS didn't have widespread adoption like it does now.
Hmmm real need.... we need it now, lots of traffic is being harvested now for cracking later.
Using a symmetric pre-shared key based VPN can help mitigate this issue. While the actual HTTPS data will still use non-PQR cryptography, Wireguard's XChaCha20 and OpenVPN's AES-256-CBC are considered safe against quantum computers since they don't use asymmetric cryptography.
Of course, you still need to trust the VPN provider.
Awesome! Thats good info, thanks!
