Signal is not a property of information. It is a relation between a piece of information and a decision you own. Gregory Bateson defined information as "a difference that makes a difference" — and the operational version is sharper: signal is a difference that makes a difference to a decision that is yours to make. The same paragraph is signal to one reader and noise to the next.
