"New" objection to wormholes
Hi.
I saw on this site:
http://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/19754/how-long-would-it-take-to-travel-through-a-wormhole
Has anyone else seen this objection? It's one I haven't seen before, thus the scare-quoted "new" in the title. Not sure if this is the right place to post or if it should be posted in the "beyond the standard model" section, but since the objection apparently isn't just in string theory, but in "modern gravity"...

Wormholes linking distant spacetime points are forbidden in string theory (as far as we know) and in modern gravity, because you would be able to make information loss in a local region by dumping one of two entangled pairs into the wormhole, and letting it come out elsewhere.
