e.g. from Wikipedia: "the observer's paradox is a situation in which the phenomenon being observed is unwittingly influenced by the presence of the observer/investigator". Here unwittingly applies to the phenomenon, but it's not the phenomenon that doesn't know; it's the observer (I suppose). Equinox 23:11, 18 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
