Multi-user communication network paves the way towards the quantum internet

Amazing stuff!

"The concept of quantum communication, with security guaranteed by the laws of physics, took the world by storm when first unveiled in 1984. The traditional protocol, however, allows only two people to communicate securely. Attempts to extend this to “quantum networking” have usually proved either insecure or impracticably complex. Now, however, researchers in the UK and Austria have demonstrated secure information exchange between eight users spaced all around a city."
