Digital reproduction is digital reproduction no matter how many extra steps are added to the reproduction process. It's just an algorithm that sorts through a collection of stored data to find specific pieces of data which best fit the keywords supplied by the user, then regurgitates the results that are the best match based on correlation.
In spite of common meaning overlap and popular metaphors, the human brain is not a computer. Ask any neurologist.
Thank you for the opinion. If there's a trial, and if you're called as an expert witness, I'm sure they'll consider your opinion, and have a fun debate on whether a human brain being similar to a computer is relevant in any way.
In the meantime, the technology exists, is useful and the results are no more theft than creating piñatas from newspaper clippings is theft from the newspaper.
