Global accommodation giant Airbnb has defended its decision to hand over the data of 190,000 property owners and hosts to the Tax Office about the income they have received from the platform.
Airbnb this week sent a message to Airbnb hosts alerting them that it provided data to the ATO to assist in identifying taxpayers who have left out rental income and over-claimed deductions.
