This is incorrect by well over a century. The error is likely a conflation of information transmission with mass in context of relativity.

Thomas Young's 1801 double slit experiment demonstrated the wave particle duality of light. The modern scientific explanations aren't found in relativity, instead quantum mechanics.

The title is just crap. Don't try to defend it, especially not like this.
