Based on the traditional information-processing paradigm, one would agree with you. However, based on some other definitions such as in-formation, as what is formed within [human mind], (cited in some of Richard Boland's articles or Strombach's or Ropohl's thinking on the philosophy of information technology), one may disagree. Given the 'gray' nature of information, depending upon the underlying assumptions, I intentionally did not include information in machine-machine. From another perspective, when one machine talks to another machine - they almost always exchange data without being 'aware' or 'cognizant' of the context or its implications.
