The government and enterprises using the data should build trust with the public by being transparent on how the data is used and share stories of how the data has been used and what good has become out of it for the society.

The 10th Opinion Festival was held in Paide recently. Erki Saluveer @erkisal participated in the discussion “Why do I have to trust my data to the state?” which was organised by Statistics Estonia. The discussion revolved mostly around who should have the control over the data.

[Positium @positium]

But who should that be? And how much should you trust the government?
