Now that we know that all the traffic is captured (NSA,Snowden) and there are big
buildings built with many computers to decrypt messages, don't
you devs think it's time to increase the bit size from 1536 to at least
2048 (NIST recommends at least 2048bit), before you switch to ECC because it's much faster to change the bit size than switching to ECC.
