This isn't good. Seems like maybe these services shouldn't exist.

...

The malware can allow full access to a device, providing the threat actor initial access to a corporate network for further attacks."

Remember: #Intuit (#TurboTax) lobbies to make your #taxes complicated and to keep you from having an easy way to file with the #IRS. If you don't want those Intuit bloodsuckers to have your money, the IRS offers free #eFile to everyone. You have to do your own taxes, but it will help with simple math. And you don't have to pay someone who will take that money and use it to make your life miserable, year after year after year! :) Search for your state, too!
