Reply to comment by orbital_one in Dark matter may be information itself by newsphilosophy

what part wouldn't mean they can't travel the speed of light?

light is a massless photon but that doesn't hinder it.

Dark matter must have mass and would have to be traveling at subluminal speeds within galaxies. It's not possible to accelerate massive objects to light speed. So if dark matter is actually information in physical form then that should imply that information (or at least some types of information?) doesn't travel at light speed. Unless I'm mistaken about something.

And photons contain multiple bits of information.
