While other research groups had successfully transmitted quantum information alongside classical data streams in simulations of the internet, Kumar’s team was the first to teleport a quantum state alongside an actual internet stream.

I doubt that would be the eventual use case. This is more likely to be used to make sure no one has looked at data you have sent to a specific individual/party.
