Since there exists in this four dimensional structure [space-time] no longer any sections which represent "now" objectively, the concepts of happening and becoming are indeed not completely suspended, but yet complicated. It appears therefore more natural to think of physical reality as a four dimensional existence, instead of, as hitherto, the evolution of a three dimensional existence.
Quantum entanglement is a special type of correlation between two objects: if two particles—say, two photons—are in an entangled state, then measuring one determines the state of the other even if they are far apart. More than a quirky feature of quantum mechanics, entanglement is the basis for many new applications. These include technologies for sending secret signals, transmitting densely coded information, and replicating a particle a long distance away (quantum teleportation.) But in these and other applications, the fact that entanglement is fragile and easily broken by environmental noise can be the limiting factor.
That's like saying "I can't break the speed of sound in one Cessna, but I can do it with three Cessnas". You can carry three times as much cargo or passengers with three Cessnas, but none of them are any faster than one Cessna.

So yes, they were talking about transmitting information that's not FTL securely on one channel even when entanglement is broken.
I'm not trying to encode information faster than light on one channel. I'm doing it on a multi channel network. It's exactly what I'm talking about.
Again you're obfuscating.
Tell us why this would be prohibited on a multi channel network.
The experiment essentially requires a “standing wave” in the test chamber, with waves at many frequencies. These light waves interact in such a way that they create peaks, like when you pluck two slightly-out-of-tune guitar strings and you hear a pulsing sound.
That's completely unrelated to the entanglement neo is talking about.

I think what neoholographic is talking about is FTL code breaking applications where a standing wave pattern has already been established.
If space and time behave like a superfluid, or a fluid that experiences no dissipation at all, then path memory could conceivably give rise to the strange quantum phenomenon of entanglement — what Einstein referred to as “spooky action at a distance.” When two particles become entangled, a measurement of the state of one instantly affects that of the other. The entanglement holds even if the two particles are light-years apart.
