Black Holes May Preserve Information After All
With help from string theory, (Newswise:) Study May Solve One of Great Mysteries of Black Holes: "Since Mathur’s conjecture suggests that strings continue to exist inside the black hole, and the nature of the strings depends on the particles that made up the original source material, then each black hole is as unique as are the stars, planets, or galaxy that formed it. The strings from any subsequent material that enters the black hole would remain traceable as well."
