Researchers at the University of Ottawa have successfully sent a quantum-encrypted message containing more than 1 bit of information per photon across a city, in a major step towards making quantum encryption a practical possibility.
This is a fascinating piece of news, but I am a bit puzzled about it appearing on our LN blog, unless you thought it was apposite since it was the U of O that did the work.
Clearly the rest of the committee need to follow up on this - I have been asking for a talk on quantum encryption to follow on from the BlockChain event!
