Nothing New

The following quote appears in the article:

"For the time being, this is the only violation of special relativity that I know of."

Interresting. I am aware of several FTL violations in the last 5 or so years - including *information* being sent FTL. I'll presume this scientist is burried in work and is simply not aware.

To my understanding: I point out that Einstein indicated that INFORMATION could not go FTL - everything else could. Obviously, he was not completely correct, regardless.

FYI: Light has been slowed to a literal crawl and even "frozen" - search terms would include "liquid light" and "cesium gas".
