In a developed country, I would be more worried about preserving proof of identity or ownership, rather than purging information about myself.

A few years ago we went completely paperless. We had two huge 4-drawer filing cabinets of crap from years of running two businesses and managing our personal finances.

>>> 2016
>
>>> 2017
>
>>> 2018
