Your definition is too limited. Information is not necessarily memories or identity, anything we knowingly have to give, and I'm not suggesting they can steal memories from our heads directly. [No, after the Toushi thing, he would not put Genius into the line of fire like that.] Information re: behavior: decision-making, social interaction... We don't have "nothing"; we've just been reduced to our bare minimum. Like scraping the fancy exterior of a clock so you can see how the gears work. Maybe the memory loss was just the first part of a dissection. Each event is a shock, a tap, a poke to muscles and organs to see just how we work, and break.
They're undoubtedly learning about us by observing us through their experiments. To what ends, though, I don't know.
