The very moment that I revceive a filing

Is the moment that the data retained becomes evidence and I'll not be the one to willfully destroy evidence.

That evidence will then be presented to the courts and become public record.

At least, that's how the courts and laws operate within the US. The evidence would be presented on discovery and presented to the court, thereby becoming public record and likely, subject to the Streisand Effect.

The demand to unlawfully destroy the presented evidence would also be submitted, which will likely draw some crossed brows from the jurist.
