Very interesting the links to quantum theory, specifically entanglement.

The author doesn't know what they're talking about. If you're interested in learning QM or other physics, I'd recommend the reading list from an old comment of mine:

Well entanglement very much is the interesting part, as it is with any hidden variable theory.

This version is disapointingly shallow though:

>It is also a natural result of a peer-to-peer network that single objects can “split in two”, becoming entangled

He does describe a process whereby an object can split into two, but as for how this is the same as two entangled particles I've no clue. Just sounds like superposition to me to be honest.
