Hello.
On the "Ask an Astrophysicist" page on the NASA site, one can read the following:
1. Do the scientific community agrees with this answer?
2. Can the virtual gnomes break any rule and fulfill any wish as long as we don't detect them ?
3. Should I trust the rest of the site?
EDIT: Somehow the virtual photons transformed into virtual gnomes. I guess it corroborates that they can pretty much "do" whatever they like.

This raises three questions for a layman such as me:[Question]ow can [a charged black hole] attract or repel other charged objects if photons can't escape from the event horizon?
[Answer]:The key point is that electromagnetic interactions (and gravity, if quantum gravity ends up looking like quantum electrodynamics) are mediated by the exchange of *virtual* gnomes. This allows a standard loophole: virtual gnomes can pretty much "do" whatever they like, including traveling faster than light, so long as they disappear before they violate the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
