Yes, it is equal to 0.5.
If you try to send a "0", the receiver may register "0" or "1" so
P=0.5

P=0.5
So the receiver can never know which was which. The probabilities
don't add, they are always 0.5.
You can't arbitrarily decide to send information or not, and use that
as a means, because any particle has to *already* have been sent on
its way to the receiver (particles travel slower than light!), so the
receiver must receive *something*.
