The article talks about "free will" but what it is actually referring
to is randomness. If the experimenters' choice is not random then the
mysterious nature of entanglement disappears. According to the MWI of
QM, the experimenters' choice is not random but completely determined.
It just seems random from the first person perspective because you
don't know which copy you are.
