I've heard of the possibility of "apparent" FTL through worm holes or other disturbances in spacetime, what do you think of those



There are lots of interesting questions about what this would really mean, but it wouldn't break the FTL barrier - it's really taking a shorter path, not taking a long path but going faster.

This potentially raises paradoxes etc, and may also be impossible, but it doesn't break the barrier in the above sense.
