Our current understanding of physics says that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, and yet, with quantum teleportation, information appears to break that speed limit.

...

Entangled quantum states aren’t the same as information.

This article is fake news.

Abstract:

Integrated optics provides a versatile platform for quantum information processing and transceiving with photons1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. The implementation of quantum protocols requires the capability to generate multiple high-quality single photons and process photons with multiple high-fidelity operators9,10,11. However, previous experimental demonstrations were faced by major challenges in realizing sufficiently high-quality multi-photon sources and multi-qubit operators in a single integrated system4,5,6,7,8, and fully chip-based implementations of multi-qubit quantum tasks remain a significant challenge1,2,3. Here, we report the demonstration of chip-to-chip quantum teleportation and genuine multipartite entanglement, the core functionalities in quantum technologies, on silicon-photonic circuitry. Four single photons with high purity and indistinguishablity are produced in an array of microresonator sources, without requiring any spectral filtering. Up to four qubits are processed in a reprogrammable linear-optic quantum circuit that facilitates Bell projection and fusion operation. The generation, processing, transceiving and measurement of multi-photon multi-qubit states are all achieved in micrometre-scale silicon chips, fabricated by the complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor process. Our work lays the groundwork for large-scale integrated photonic quantum technologies for communications and computations.

Yes, they are. Every single data point the lab can draw from the particles is information, it just may or may not be useable information. Right now, it's been generally observed that quantum entanglement is real. The biggest hurdle is how to use that: How do I alter my particle, so as to transmit useable info to the other one?

You do realize that binary is how computers work, right? on/off, up/down, that is how info is read and transmitted. If I can taqke several quantum particles, and change their states, than I now have a perfect transmitter/receiver, whose only time delay is how fast I can change those states. There is no speed of light/wires limiting radio contact, info getting from the HD to the GPU, etc. This would have huge implications not just in computers, but for military communications especially.
