Thanks, yes. Among the telling points made;

The most important point from the StackExchange discussion is that if
Schnorr could “destroy RSA”, he would have destroyed one of the RSA
Challenge problems to prove it. He did not.

Schnorr is a real cryptologist and a real mathematician, though. This
isn't a hoax; it just remains to be seen to what degree its claims
check out in practice, and whether the maths prove valid when peer
reviewed.
