This usage is an example of semantic extension—where a word is used in a non-literal sense that still retains some of its original meaning. Here, “in” is being used to mean “through the medium of” or “via,” which is a broader interpretation of “in” that overlaps with “with.” This flexibility is common in English, allowing prepositions to take on slightly altered meanings depending on context.
