This article identifies a series of properties common to all theories that do not allow for superluminal signaling and predict the violation of Bell inequalities. Intrinsic randomness, uncertainty due to the incompatibility of two observables, monogamy of correlations, impossibility of perfect cloning, privacy of correlations, bounds in the shareability of some states; all these phenomena are solely a consequence of the no-signaling principle and nonlocality. In particular, it is shown that for any distribution, the properties of i nonlocal, ii no arbitrarily shareable, and iii positive secrecy content are equivalent.

A glance beyond the quantum model (2009, background): “One approach, followed by Popescu and others (see, for instance, [4, 5, 6]), is to derive general results that should apply to any physical theory fulfilling a set of reasonable axioms.”
Information causality as a physical principle (2009, methodology): “ories predict intrinsic randomness, no-cloning[7, 8], an information-disturbance trade-off[9] and allow for secure cryptography[10–12].”
Quantum state discrimination (2008, background): “chanics with special relativity, it has been suggested that the no-signaling principle be giventhe status of a physical law, which may be used to limit quantum mechanics and possible extensions of it [94,95]. In practice, bounds on the ﬁdelity of qua ntum cloning machines [96,97], the success probab”
Do We Really Understand Quantum Mechanics? (2012, background): “A general discussion of the properties of nonsignaling theories is given in [250]: intrinsic randomness, impossibility of perfect cloning, monogamy, etc.”
