In theory, one could always check if the site is "real" or phishing goes
around, by examining carefully security certificate. In practice - I
doubt if the problem can be avoided that way.
But here the "security certificate" rings in my left ear. Quantum
Computing is going to happen within a decade. There will be no present
day security certificates any more. And all the carefully encrypted
email messages stored so far by Google Mail will become a clear text
messages available for free reading by /*Sergey Brin and Larry Page.
