Do yourself a favor and STOP reading the headlines (Sec. 1102. IRS Free File Program): "(4) The IRS Free File Program shall continue,to work cooperatively with the private sector to provide the free individual income tax preparation and the electronic filing services described in paragraphs (2) and (3)."

I'm a google rewards user (never paid for anything on google play - except w/ my soul), and I've been suspecting this for a while and here's why... 90% of the time after I visit any store or restaurant i get a survey request where it asks me which store i visited, nails it 99% of the time on which store i visited, and then asks me what i payment type i used to make the purchase: credit card, cash, etc... At first the surveys would ask if i would share my receipt. figuring they could then tie my purchases to my google account, I've declined to share the receipts every time they ask, and i will continue to... However recently (in the past 3 months or so) they quit asking me for a receipt. which meant either: a) they knew who i was already by my CC# or b) they were smart enough to know that i wouldn't share that info so they quit asking for it. w/e idc.., i get "free" shit on google play for putting up with better targeted ads.
