The other issue is if people who want to keep their secrets secret know that data shamans can find deleted data, how would they do so? They'd need a secure, vault-like recycling bin for receiving sanctioned material, but which keeps the file "alive" so that it never crosses over.
What happens to files which are copied, shared, widely-distributed, edited or corrupted would also be a problem to consider.

I can so see this as a premise for an In Nomine-game centered around Soldiers of Destiny, Judgment, Lightning, Fate, the Game, Technology, and - if you include Minor Superiors - Revelation and Secrets, stumbling over secrets their celestials patrons didn't reveal...
I like it.
