    I think the .2-hp2x. part confuses the image tool on the forum.

    No, it's the part where i leave "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" checked off

    back to science;
    if we equip a probe a with quantum computing instruments and send it to a black hole can we see the future as it approaches the even horizon?

    Nope. You can't see the future. Not even in a black hole.

    We even won't be able to see the 'future' of the probe as it gets closer to the EH. It will appear to slow to a halt and then fade in to blackness, because the light that is emitted by it will be stretched by the gravitational pull of the black hole so much that it will red-shift until it can't be seen by human eyes. Eventually it's signal will only show up as a very faint speck of light in the far, far, far radio spectrum, and it will be the same signal for billions of years.

    Is this not a quantum entanglement question?

    Yes
    If you were on the probe, would you not be going into fast forward before the super stretchiness happens (say a supermassive black hole where the EH has friendly local gravity)? That's what I meant about a quantum probe sending (I don't understand black holes and entanglement).
