It is an open secret, i.e., no secret at all, that the NSA finances
fundamental research in mathematics and physics that it deems relevant
to its critical listening-in/code-breaking missions, as do the other
Five-eyes components.

described entanglement as one of the 'central principles' of quantum
mechanics; and there is a discussion, pellucid but not for
mathematical dropouts, of entanglement in the first English-language
edition of John von Neumann's

Entanglement is hardly a new idea - interesting notion that it might explain
how Santa got to (and down) all those chimneys in such a short time period
though.
