Why do the Watchtower teach Jehovah's Witnesses that they must shun people who leave the religion because they find the literature to be in error?

There is no such teaching amongst Jehovah's Witnesses. Jehovah's Witnesses practice what they call "disfellowshipping" this is removal of individuals from the congregation that insist on continuing to practice things such as adultery, theft and sexual abuse. Disagreeing over the content of the Watchtower is not a motive for disfellowshipping.
Those that insist on teaching contradictory doctrines while at the same time associating with the Jehovah's Witness religion are also disfellowshipped.
Cults like this ostrasize anyone that leaves to keep others remaining in the cult from learning or believing the truth.

No, no. Two reasons this is not possible: 1). The Illuminati, when it existed, sought to extricate man from religion, and the Watchtower Society is decidely religious; and 2). The Illuminati has not existed since 1785, the Jehovah Witness church finds it roots in the early 20th century, long after the Illuminati passed into the past.
Who start the Jehovah's Witnesses religion?
The modern day history of Jehovah's Witnesses started in 1870 with Charles Taze Russell*, the prime mover of a religiously independent bible study group who went on to be the first President of the Watchtower Society that prints the principle religious bible study journal of Jehovah's Witnesses "The Watchtower" magazine in July 1979. The readers of "The Watchtower" formed more bible study groups and sought to share the things they were learning. Russell died in 1916 but the Bible Students continued. They adopted the name "Jehovah's Witnesses" in 1931.*Jehovah's Witnesses do not view Russell as their "founder" or a Prophet but a Minister in a position of leadership during the early days of their modern day organization.
