Pretty skimpy article for so much hoopla.
As others have said, the speed of light is "broken" in many instances... heck you can do it as well... simply take a flash light, point it out and spin spin spin! The radial velocity of the light beam is faster than "c"...watch out that you don't blind your grandpa in 1930 or he'll never marry your grandma!!!

However as others have pointed, you can't use any of the knonw FTL to transfer information and thus it is a semantic word game at best with (AFAIK from the aritcle) no practical use whatsoever.

Two other factoids:

1) The speed of light has always been broken in quantum tunneling for that is instantanous. Whether it is truly instantanous or merely too fast to measure I'm not sure but the fact these german cats where working with quantum tunneling leads me to belive they haven't found anything we didn't know.

2) Relativity DOES NOT prevent the speed of light from being broken... only that a massve object cannot be accelerated to the speed of light. In the cracks of that definition, namely that it needs to be massive and accelerated, you could find room for all manner of FTL including massless transportation and non-accelerated motion (as per the Alcuberrie Metric for example)
