Again, by publishing your content on the WWW you are releasing a measure of control over your work. You have given implicit consent that complete strangers cache your content. You do it too, whenever you visit a site.
To stay in the strained physical object analogy, the situation is not an unlocked house and people entering and taking your stuff, it is like having a zero-cost matter compiler and dumping a complete replica of the house including interior decorations on every casual passerby.
