Over the last couple of years, Gerda, a resident at Diana Isaac Village in Christchurch, has grown her Māori vocabulary by attending the virtual monthly te reo Māori classes offered to Ryman residents. This group learning environment is run by Anita Gill from Te Puna Reo Māori, a Māori online learning provider.

You should be concerned about the IRD giving social media companies our data
The IRD is giving your data to Facebook – taxpayers' data to Facebook, that was the headline yesterday.
We give them our data in trust and confidence. Well, we don't actually, we give them our data because the law says we must file our tax returns and tell them who we are and how much… View moreThe IRD is giving your data to Facebook – taxpayers' data to Facebook, that was the headline yesterday.
We give them our data in trust and confidence. Well, we don't actually, we give them our data because the law says we must file our tax returns and tell them who we are and how much we're earning.
But perhaps you assume that the law says that they must keep it to themselves. Not so.
I think this is a scandal.
To be honest when I read the headline, I thought IRD must have been hit by one of those phone scams. You know, they've been cold called by Nigerian prince and handed over our private data.
But no, the RNZ report says they give Facebook and the big tech guys some of our information because it's anonymised. They're calling it hashed. So they can't see who you are when they hand it over.
And it's only for the purposes of IRD placing ads on these platforms like Facebook, et cetera, so don't worry about it.
Sorry, I am worried, and I reckon most Kiwis will hate this.
The reason is pretty simple: it's trust.
Do you trust Facebook? No.
Do you believe they will keep your data secure? No.
Do you believe they won't marry up your private data that our government has just handed them on a silver platter with the profiles they have on you already? No.
No one trusts these guys.
I don't want some government department sending my data to some Silicon Valley server so that some tech guy can bug me with intrusive ads about what undies to buy.
I actually think there's more to this story, and there will be because they have a life of their own. It won't just be the IRD that's doing it. There will be other government departments, there'll be other private data, there'll be more of us affected.
Luxon should get ahead of this and just say let's have some kind of little review because otherwise you're going to get these headlines ticking over and over and over, and I think people will be sick of it.
Also, as citizens, we need to have faith that when we give our data to the government that it is kept secure and safe, and even a perception that it's not is not good enough.
