So far, however, the efficiency of this process, which is called counterfactual computation (CFC), has had an upper limit of 50%, limiting its practical applications. It's a Schrödinger's Catputer using the unknown state as a flip-flop, by using quantum hocus-pocus (in a good way) they are able to increase the odds of knowing the on-off state, i.e. 0 or 1. Binary compute.

I think they’ve basically created the Jupiter Room scene inside their computer.

“a new model of secret communication in which no physical signal particles are transmitted”
So they’ve finally found a way to get through my tinfoil hat.
What now?

At this level you don’t so much understand what’s going on, you just get used to it.

Employing the counterfactual quantum phenomenon, several groups have proposed and demonstrated a new model of secret communication in which no physical signal particles are transmitted, which provides practical security advantages.On the other side of black holes people are ticked off about strange messages that keep appearing on their TV screens...
