      “that electrical stimuli passed between neighboring electrodes can also affect non-neighboring electrodes. Known as non-locality, this discovery is a crucial milestone”

      That’s not quantum non locality. The journalist didn’t know how to interpret the actual data.

      "Quantum nonlocality does not allow for faster-than-light communication,[6] "

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_nonlocality

      Quantum non locality is like taking two playing cards, sealing them in envelopes, mailing one to your friend across the country and then asking him to open it. You will know faster than light which card is in your envelope. But that doesn’t allow information transfer.
