The fundamental question of how information spreads in closed quantum many-body systems is often addressed through the lens of the bipartite entanglement entropy. Among its most striking features are unbounded linear growth in the thermodynamic limit, asymptotic extensivity in finite-size systems, and measurement-induced phase transitions. Here, we show that these key qualitative features emerge naturally also for the classical bipartite mutual information, the natural classical analogue of the quantum entanglement entropy. Key for this observation is treating the classical many-body problem on par with the quantum one, that is, explicitly accounting for the exponentially large probability distribution. Our analysis is supported by extensive numerics on prototypical cellular automata and Hamiltonian systems.
