Digitising Government Minister Judith Collins this week revealed the first prototypes of a new Government App, which she says will provide a secure and convenient way for New Zealanders to access key services such as education enrolment, birth registration, and tax information.
The app will also hold digital credentials, including a planned mobile driver licence, and is being modelled on “international examples” but developed with a “distinctly New Zealand feel.”
Collins stressed that traditional service options will remain available for those who prefer not to use the app.
The announcement, however, sparked immediate criticism across social media.
Many commenters accused the government of laying the groundwork for mass surveillance, comparing the project to China’s infamous social credit system and warning it could become a tool for tracking citizens.
“Say No to Digital ID,” wrote one critic, while another added: “No one asked for this. No one wants this.”
Others cited past broken promises around driver licence photos and COVID “vaccine passports” and warned against trusting government assurances. Some dismissed the app as “completely untrustworthy and very dangerous,” arguing no government software should run on personal devices.

Secure and convenient she enthuses. Just like safe and effective, eh Collins.
Next will be MANDATORY.
I would trust Judith Collins as far as I could kick a hot steaming turd in a corner kike church confession booth on Saturday
This is just a leg in the door
Or a foot into bed with a strange bed partner
Disgusting creature
Maybe I was a bit too hard on Judith?
Too hard? No, what this tells you is National like Labour, don’t know how to “read a room”. No one wants any of this. There’s a reason people like the term “private citizen”.
This is why New Zealand needs to WTFU and vote for the New Zealand Loyal Party…

Nobody died in the Mosque Attack video
But there is no proof anybody died at all
National and Labour both take, and follow, orders from Bill Gates and the globalists.
They do not serve the people of NZ, they sell them out.
The trouble with government assurances is government policy changes when whomever gets in power.
My policy however, will not change.
The government seeks full control over everybody in the world. The government seeks control, freedom restrictions on travel, purchases in terms of what, who from and how much. The government seeks all social media posts, blogs, emails, sites visited, tax, banking, health to be recorded and reviewed.
Privacy is at an end. Full control over you will be imposed.
Just look at the protesters in the UK and Europe. French government has crashed. The people are burning buildings.
Give us democracy in these constitutional matters or be prepared to be replaced.
Why do I think ” safe and effective”???? JC – not to be believed under Amy circumstances
It’s here to stay as.both parties will adore the possibilities.
Both parties? All the ones that are in the wasp nest will go extinct.
ALL have lost credibility, respect and mana.
To be frank: I thought we see some more of them trying to jump ship.
Shouldn’t that be Judas Collins, I haven’t forgotten about Oravida, this “thing” shouldn’t even be in parliament
Just what no one asked for.
This 👆
What an evil looking cow
Looks like the clown IT in the movie based on the Steven King novel
“its for your safety “
No thank you.
That’s a hard NO from me, Judith. You and the rest of the swamp dwellers can take your ‘secure & convenient’, along with your ‘safe & effective’ and f*ck right off!
Don’t forget the proven part
To reinforce the lie
So out of touch, they actually think anyone truly trusts them, at this point. They all showed their hand during COVID, Labour and National, in particular, cheering it on. They think too, it’s going to be a cake walk into a police state. Well just look at the UK , on the cusp of a revolution, plus the mounting protests in Australia, including the huge turn out against mass immigration, what, a couple of weeks back? Truly reckless and frankly, none too clever. I guess a bit of paper on a wall, will only take you so far.
Convenience and security,
Health and Safety,
two sides of the same 1984 coin.
The next thing will be some ‘reason’ to introduce digital ID and digital ‘money’.
Somebody wrote “not reading the room”. These individuals are so far removed from reality and from what normal Kiwis are worried about that they seem brain-dead. They are not but they are void of humanism.
members of Plymouth Brethren Christian Church direct debit your tithes.
the BEAST comes disguised
Before covid this would have been rolled out without much fanfare or difficulty. Post-covid no one trusts the government anymore. It’s a No from me!
Well said. Totally agree. Do not sign up to anything and keep voting NZ first who aims to protect cash and reduce immigration.
I do not consent to any government run app on any personal device. I have no faith in the decisions made by the Government or any MP. Experience says all those whom think they have authority over me are sucking the goodness out of me. To Judith and her handlers this is a definite no from me for this government app to be on my phone
Piss off, globalist Granny 🖕
Digital Identity Services Trust. So the appreviation is D.I.S.Trust. Aptly named
Judas, freshly back from promoting WW3 in Ukraine, can now focus on destroying our food safety with her GMO Bill, and introducing a social credit score Trojan Horse, for our ‘safety & convenience’..
Who do you work for Judas, because it’s clearly not us New Zealanders..?
Not remotely interested Judith.
I don’t believe a word you say, and you certainly don’t work for us.
Everything you come up with is designed to control and manipulate people, strip them of their rights and impoverish them on every level possible.
Vote National out, they are the communist party like Labour, maori, and greens. Vote NZ First and ACT! Save our freedom.
Pictures of Judith
Made my life so wonderful
She is just a walking dead with newspaper brains, television soul and high school ideas. NZ is “blessed” indeed.
Did you see her walking in Kiev? She is terribly unwell and her life wont last long. “Elensky curse”
she wasted billions of dollars on helicopters which wont protect New Zealand in a conflict situation. A ten thousand dollar missile will down the US made flying toy.
Judith Collins up to no good yet again.
With all due respect to Judith, I do wish the evil old bag would permanently f*ck off.
And You’re feeling generous today
But yes it is time Judith was put out to pasture
Interesting timing.
Digital ID announced today in the UK :

It appears our creepy satanic globalist overlords are in a hurry.
Was this in the National Party election manifesto?
No thought not.
In other words a global digital prison.
No thanks Judith.
Oh dear, how obviously obvious…
A global digital prison.
No thanks Judith go f*ck yourself.
Silly old bag.
Bugger off Judith.
Yep exactly.
Judith is a grotesque lying stupid old bag. Just ignore her.
The jig is finally up for Judith.
A mad granny is trying to sell me a dystopian digital ID “for my convenience”.
No thanks Judith, you corrupt senile silly old fart.
Judith doesnt need any form of ID (because of her size too). Most common public are nothing to the Empire of Lies. So they dont need it for their welfare. Digital IDs benefits the ruling cabol to spy and enslave the peasents like us.
