Did Schnorr destroy RSA? Show me the factors.
Schnorr has claimed new factoring methods that “destroy RSA”. This should be easy to demonstrate with well known challenges.
Hasnain says:
This whole thing has been blowing up on Twitter, and I agree with this take here. This seems like a fairly straightforward way to provide evidence of an extraordinary claim.
“Show Me the Factors
According to the claims in Schnorr’s paper, it should be practical to set significant new factoring records. There is a convenient 862-bit RSA challenge that has not been factored yet. Posting its factors, as done for the CADO-NFS team’s records, would lend credence to Schnorr’s paper and encourage more review of the methodology.”
