     So, if you're an old person, you probably remember the Crown Sterling "time AI" fiasco at the RSA Conference. It happened six years ago and was the reason why people said "never again" to the conference before going there again and then getting upset about the next thing.

     Anyway - I was putting some finishing touches on the article about complex numbers and came across this relevant paper (attached pics).

     And while I don't want to dox the author, I did look up their bio and he "has focused on cryptography and data security. He founded Crown Sterling, a company that has developed innovative quantum-resistant encryption methods based on Quasi-Prime numbers"
