    The punishment given to copy the brain is very negligible.

    Explanation:

    The rule should be in such a manner that,

    It does not punish the person who has not involved in the act of crime Punishment should be in a manner that, it gives an opportunity for the criminal to correct himself.

    Scenario explained:

    Based on this idea, for this scenario, I feel like using the product of someone which is patented is crime but the punishment given for copying the product of someone is negligible. So anyone can try to copy, just pay fine if they are caught. So this neither satisfies rule number 1 mentioned above, nor satisfies rule number 2.
