What the hell is a quantum satellite? Is it like a quantum crypto scam or a quantum shark?

Edit: alright, I'll jump through the cookie banner and enable javascript to get to the content of what appears to be a clickbait headline:

QUESS will send messages to ground stations using entangled photons, Xinhua reported. Such a system is theoretically impossible to hack. In addition, any attempts to eavesdrop would be picked up via an induced change in the photons' state.

that sounds pretty much exactly what i would expect

the US must be shitting themselves at the thought of not being able to listen to and decode a full 100% of electronic communications anymore

Can you go whine about javascript somewhere else. I'm tired of watching you dipshit CS bugmen complain about software minutia while having no knowledge on actual technology. Go jack off to emacs.

I studied physics for 4 years at a top UK university, but okay it's either/or.
