You make arguments on their behalf at every possible turn. You are a
complete corporate toady.

How many times have you written this? Five? Six? Jim, WE KNOW IT WON'T RUN
WITHOUT THE SPYWARE. We also know that this is the way you like it. We know
that you approve of Intuit's tactics. We know that you blame Intuit's
customers for being mad at them.

I already wrote in a prior message that I have not run Turbo Tax since I
figured this all out. You keep ignoring that, and continue to act as if it's
my fault for complaining. How much is Intuit paying you to post messages on
their behalf?


> Never said I approve spyware.

You don't have to. Every chance you've gotten, you have applauded Intuit and
blamed their customers. You are their shill. What are you doing in an
anti-spyware group? Does Intuit pay you to post messages like this?

There you go again. I reactivated it a couple of times until I figured out
what was happening. At first, I thought their program was malfunctioning.
Then I learned about the C-Dilla thing that your friends at Intuit bundled
with their program, and I haven't used it since. Every message you post
condemns any criticism of Intuit and blames everything on their customers.

You are a shill for Intuit. If they're not paying you to do this, then
you're even dumber that you're looing, because no one should do an arrogant,
unethical, hostile corporation's work for free.

Once again, you blame the dissatisfied customer for the actions of the
abusive corporation. In your world, anyone wronged by a corporation is
"immature" for voicing their complaint. You are shilling for Intuit here.
Your advice is, if you don't like it, don't buy it. Well, I already bought
it.

And you don't want anyone to squeak about Intuit's outrageous, stupid,
abusive, unethical betrayal of its customers' trust. You are shilling for
Intuit.
