what about fiber optics

On: Light so Fast it Travels Backward

if they are saying that the light gets to the end before the middle of the light gets out, or whatever, then what abouot using this in networking computers, if its faster than the speed of light, which is supposed to be what fiber optics is right? with copper and regular cable, the electricity is , i think, supposed to move pretty fast, if you have two wires make a jump across eachother, it is light that we see, but given everything like resistance of the cable of copper, and its not the same speed of light, plus with routers and latency, and length of cable attenuation. fiber optic is better because its supposed to go at the speed of light, which is carrying information down this thin glass tube, but if information is what this light is, pulses of light acting as binary code, then the light that went faster. even if its backwards, will it produce light at the end faster than normal light creating information for a fiber optic cable? and also, wouldnt this mean carrying information faster than the speed of light? if i am being ignorant on this, say something more correct. peace
