  The black hole information paradox arises from an apparent conflict between
the Hawking black hole radiation and the fact that time evolution in quantum
mechanics is unitary. The trouble is that while the former suggests that
information of a system falling into a black hole disappears, the latter
implies that information must be conserved. In this work we discuss the current
divergence in views regarding the paradox, we evaluate the role that objective
collapse theories could play in its resolution and we propose a link between
spontaneous collapse events and microscopic virtual black holes.
