We're talking about information but the principle is the same

Uhm.. no. Matter and information are not the same. Sending information is easy. Just send a fax. But the fax machine recreates the information. The actual paper is still at the original end of the fax machine. We do not have the technology to create any type of matter at an atomic level at any speed. Don't get me wrong, instantaneous communication has incredible applications, but they need to stop calling it transporting.

one way or another, it’s all just energy organized into a meaningful package. If it can be organized, it can be disorganized and then reorganized.
