Quantum entanglement is like ripping a photo in half, putting both halves in seperate envelopes and carrying them to opposite ends of the world.
As soon as you open your envelope, you instantly know which half of the photo is on the other side of the planet - Faster Than Light Information Transfer!
No, measuring one particle collapses the entanglement and they no longer affect each other. It is a one time thing. You can’t modify them after they have been observed.

For a variety of reasons, no information is actually transferred. Quantum entanglement can not be used to get around the limits imposed by relativity.
That’s what I was trying to illustrate.
Illustrate?? I thought you were talking about photographs
This is a great analogy. Consider it
stolenpirated.So it’s not like: when I affect the hue (some attribute) of my half, the other half will change too? That has always been my understanding of it

So at best it can be used for unpredictable coordination between vastly-spaced armies.
