Here are the first two sentences of the text you linked to: "Certain phenomena in quantum mechanics, such as quantum entanglement, might give the superficial impression of allowing communication of information faster than light. According to the no-communication theorem these phenomena do not allow true communication; they only let two observers in different locations see the same system simultaneously, without any way of controlling what either sees." | |
| Jun 1, 2018 at 11:12 | comment | added | tobiasvl | This is a good answer, but I'm not sure it answer's OP's actual question, which seems to be whether it actually did communicate faster than light or not. My interpretation is that yes, it did, and in that case your answer explains how it could have done that. | |
