It Quantum Cryptology Over? Heisenberg Uncertainity Principle

I don't know much about Quantum Crypto, except that is is a cool idea.  However, does this discovery in Physics make Quantum Crypto outdated?

People who write research papers and do big experiments always want to think their results are more important and cool then they really are (I'm speaking from personal experience here). When you are trying to publish a result, you basically are selling it to the reviewers so you need to make it look as impacting as you can. So I agree it's hyped. It's a consequence of the way we do research.

This has been an interesting discussion, however the Expert Exchange fascists have been deleteing questions I leave open, so I am closing this.

Thanks for your responses.
