Alice can compare the hash result of her sent message with what Bob got out of it. If it is a mismatch, she wouldn't know, how much of difference there is. | |

| Oct 28, 2019 at 7:02 | comment | added | Matzurai | @aschepler Yes, you are right - hashing the message should fix it though. | |
| Oct 26, 2019 at 16:45 | comment | added | aschepler | Wouldn't a misaligned filter result in results which correlate imperfectly to the original data, not independently random results? So if Alice sees that 80% of the bits returned match what she sent, she can calculate the approximate angle between the two polarizers. | |
