We should note that CAs have been gradually converting away from MD5 and 
will now be doing so more rapidly.

If you really want to be frightened, just go over to youtube and watch a 
video about "bump keys" (there are 100s). You can easily get detailed 
instructions for opening almost any lock in seconds. Curiously, almost 
nobody seems to be bothered by this. I thought about getting a shotgun 
and never leaving my house, but gave up on it.
