What's wrong with any hardware RNG that produces 0's and 1's straight from observing natural phenomena like
"thermal noise, the photoelectric effect, and other quantum phenomena", as wikipedia puts it[1].
How can they do better than that; specifically, what do they mean with "demonstrably unpredictable values"?
