Things that definitely don't happen. Those same encryption standards are used by the US military, and the international cryptography community can pretty readily rule out keyed backdoors.
The thought that supercomputers could break Internet encryption by brute force is laughable. One would have to be innumerate to think such a thing.

I'm not familiar with this phrase, but I think I did a good job citing a comparable example in my original post.
