abstract
Recent work has highlighted the deep connection between quantum information and spacetime geometry. Bousso and Shahbazi-Moghaddam (Phys. Rev. Lett. 128, 231301 (2022)) proved that ``hyperentropic'' regions -- where entropy exceeds the area bound -- inevitably lead to singularity formation. In this work, we explore the converse implication: does the thermodynamic consistency of such singularities require them to be hidden? We answer in the affirmative, establishing a Quantum Weak Cosmic Censorship principle governed by Generalized Entropy. This provides a semiclassical mechanism for censorship which forbids naked singularities. Since Quantum Weak Cosmic Censorship is a semiclassical statement, it is more robust than the classical Weak Cosmic Censorship showing naked singularities are forbidden in nature even if quantum effects are taken into account.

Entropy bound and the non-universality of entanglement islands
