This take is inconsistent. Lobbying is perfectly legal, so Intuit isn’t being evil, just being rational.

Companies, like people, can be evil while not committing any crimes. Intuit is not even that evil when compared to most larger companies in the US. We only remember it exists during tax season.

The really evil companies manipulate markets, evade labor laws, crush unions, exploit vulnerable users, enable authoritarian surveillance, trivialize wars.

All without breaking a single law.
