Then rises the question whether it is the whole of this information that goes back to the universe during the black hole evaporation or not. Numerous theories supporting either information preservation or extinction have been developed ever since. A new idea is proposed, based on a deep re-examination of what information is and what are its properties. We postulate that not all kinds of information are of equal importance to nature and, as a result, some of them should be preserved under any conditions, while the rest are allowed to be destroyed, so both preservation and destruction of information is what actually happens during the black hole formation/evaporation process. %K Hawking radiation %K black hole thermodynamics %K information paradox %U http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.ijtmp.20120202.02.html
