I may not be familiar with Information theory, but this I can certainly answer: "the entropy
of the universe is always increased (or kept the same, but never decreased) by any given process" - standard rule in Thermodynamics/Statistical Physics. In other words, the loose definition of 'entropy is a measure of randomness' is at fault here, as well as not considering everything.
That's all I can say off the top of my head though - I'd have to look stuff up and think harder to satsifactorily answer you about Entropy.
