Do the customers even receive compensation for their data? No. It's time for this to change.

Now do TurboTax. Did me and my wife’s personal and small business taxes today. Their entire model seems to be to hide the cost until you’ve sunk four hours into putting stupid info in, at which point it’s too exhausting to even consider price shopping…
