TL;DR Summary

Physicist Dr Melvin Vopson from the University of Portsmouth has published research in AIP Advances suggesting that the universe behaves like a computer, with information being the fundamental building block. His second law of infodynamics states that information content in the universe is minimized, contradicting the second law of thermodynamics. Dr Vopson believes this supports the idea that the universe is a simulated construct and that information could be the elusive dark matter. He is now crowdfunding further research to detect and measure information in elementary particles to validate his theories.
