Falling into an evaporating black hole results in information recovery via Hawking radiation
the verdict
SUPPORTED
the evidence backs this
confidence 86/100
Multiple studies support the view that information falling into an evaporating black hole is eventually recovered via correlations and entanglement in Hawking radiation, preserving quantum unitarity.
