I think the general consensus now is not that nothing can move faster than the speed of light, it's that information cannot travel faster than the speed of light.
In the example MK27 gave, the laser light moved across the moon faster than the speed of light, but no information could be transferred from one side of the moon to the other. In this case, the information was still just going from the earth to the moon, and that was still constrained by the speed of light. If you think of it as a question of, "how can I signal something at a different location faster than the speed of light", then it makes more sense as you realize none of the "faster than the speed of light" experiments can accomplish this.
