Removal is probably possible by just burning trash over real data. But identifying what needs to be burned. Ouch.

I can understand needing this tech for court records and similar stuff. Even for libraries which desire to store everything in the world. But that's about it. I don't think many people go to old backups and see their old documents or code they wrote. Photos, sure, but even that is not a frequent thing.
