Serious private set intersection uses full homomorphic encryption or equivalent mechanisms. Microsoft Edge's compromised password detection uses FHE, for instance: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/password-monit... If anything, this article understates the problem. A single Nvidia RTX4090 can calculate 164 billion MD5 hashes per second running hashcat software: https://gist.github.com/Chick3nman/32e662a5bb63bc4f51b847bb4... That said, surprisingly few people are aware of this fact, even senior technical leadership at Big Tech companies, so I'm not surprised dodgy Ad-Tech companies are not either, and it might be an illustration of Hanlon's Razor: do not ascribe to malice what can be better explained by incompetence (even if ad-tech companies long ago forfeited the benefit of doubt). |
